Some 5 months ago I spotted a ‘page’ on Facebook that I had not seen before, it was for the Gran Sur Centro Comercial in Fañabe. For those of you that haven’t heard of this, it is a lovely shopping complex in the South of Tenerife, and has a variety of shops, restaurants as well [...]

50th Surprise
I can’t believe it is a week since Cathy celebrated her 50th Birthday party at Dreamers Bar in Los Cristianos! We have only just recovered … Rob and the team at Dreamers really looked after us and the Buffet was superb. We had Simply Mo and Celtic-Con-Fusion singing all night and a few guest singers [...]
Adding More Links
Time for a little housekeeping and a review of the links on The Beach today, deleted a few and added some nice shiny new ones. The property market is, so they say, now starting to improve and if you are looking to buy or sell you might want to take a look at what Janet [...]

New Fountain in Tenerife

There was a delivery of pallets last week and a hive of activity in the days following (well, OK [...]
Tenerife and the Volcano
It looks like things are starting to move again now, and I know there have been loads of articles written about the effects of the Volcano but how many of us living on this Volcanic Island of Tenerife would have thought that it would be a volcano on Iceland that would have caused disruption to us [...]

The Majestic
On the 19th February we set off to drive to Puerto de La Cruz, Alan and myself having been transformed into Alison and Steph! The idea was that we were going to watch the High Heels Marathon that we had read so much about. Well our plan was flawed, you see we also decided to [...]
