Cats Aid in Tenerife

We see and hear lots and lots about the various Dog Rescue organisations in Tenerife however maybe we don’t hear as much about the sterling work that is now being carried out by Cats Aid here in the South. Cats Aid is a Tenerife Association that is NOT a rehoming centre, Nor is it a…

Drinking Water in Tenerife

This week Cathy and I obtained a piece of new kit for the kitchen, a cool water dispenser from Home Coolers International. I was a little unsure as to whether we actually ‘needed’ it, however it has already earned itself a permanent place alongside the microwave, kettle and toaster! We all know how important it…

Simply Mo and Celtic Confusion

Simply Mo is now performing 3 nights a week with Derek and Mark, better known as Celtic con Fusion at Dreamers Bar in Los Cristianos – he suggested that they should be known as Simply con Fusion on those nights!

Los Abrigos and El Medano

Sir Old Golfer is someone who I probably have previously thought of more for his Golfing knowledge than his Photography skills however I came across this selection of photos that he has taken and thought that there were some really lovely images amongst them.

Do You Read …

Browsing through my ‘favourites’ or ‘bookmarks’ this morning over a coffee or three it occurred to me that I really should be sharing some of my favourite reads with you. On Twitter (you do follow me on Twitter don’t you?) there is a thing called Follow Friday, the idea is to think of interesting people…

Happy New Year!

We would like to wish all of our friends, relatives and readers of The Beach a very Happy New Year for 2011. As this article is published we will hopefully be down on the beach in Los Cristianos watching the spectacular firework displays in all directions.  We will have been entertained by Celtic con Fusion…

Fountain

Well, last time it was on was the weekend of June 18th and it was on again last night! [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1VKwCpi-Tk] It is turned off again this morning though, wonder if it is on a timer for once every 6 months? Update: Here is the announcement from Arona Turismo (04.01.2011)

Christmas 2010

Well, that’s it over for another year! Here are some of the photos we have taken during the last week or so, starting with the work’s party and ending up at Dreamers Bar in Los Cristianos on Christmas night.
