My mates, shopping, Green grass, The Harvester and McDonalds milkshakes.

Oh Yes Nikki I agree with you - green grass. We don't see much of that in this part of Spain do we ??
There are a few McDonalds over here. I go to the one in Elche shopping mall, but I don't know if they do your milk shakes or not !!

Souxie, I am with you there,I am at the moment in the leafy lanes of Sussex, Sun shining 24 degrees, green fields, Livestock all around me, but then again I love Spain to, there is good and bad for all regions. If only we could stop the corruption that is abundant in Spain,life could be a pleasure.

I miss my family and friends, the green fields and hills , and being able to walk the moors of Lancashire.

I forgot a few things - I really miss not being able to go clothes/shoe shopping on a Sunday - there are hardly any shopping malls open here on a Sunday, except Eroski at Pillar de la Horradada - that is the only one that we have found over here that actually opens Sundays !! Also I am a keen Gambler - No not that kind - the slot machines ie 2p's or if I'm feeling rich the 10p's. I miss places like Hayling Island, Littlehampton Smarts Amusement Arcade, the piers (especially Bognor & Brighton) in Sussex - I like the grabba machines - it's fun, but nothing like that over here in Spain at all. A few rides for the kids on Torrevieja sea front and maybe a grabba machine - similar near the Torrevieja shopping mall. But nowhere you can actually go for a day out for this sort of thing that I know of. That's it for now folks. Might think of a few more things later x

Well I have something in common with you Carol,a liking for places like Brighton(I enjoyed walking down the Lanes)Bognor I had a caravan at Bognor for about 12 years,I also had a penchant on a bright winters day of popping down to Bognor(60 miles) for a bag of chips and eating them on the front,Those were the days,I am sorry Spain but nowhere can you match those memories

Commented Alan in La Marina 2011-07-02 15:28:37 UTC

Oh Yes - the lanes. I used to go there a lot. I remember getting some lovely dresses there (I don't think you would have that in common with me) ha ha. I bet it's not the same as we remember it now !!

Commented Carol in La Marina 2011-07-02 17:34:35 UTC

Absolutely nothing!!!!!! (nikki, if you put strawberry ice cream, a splash of milk and a spoon full of strawberry nesquick in the blender it tastes just like a maccy dee shake!)

Commented Steve in La Marina 2011-07-03 14:15:55 UTC
