The roadworks in calle El Barrio are already up to the cafeteria El Barrio but I suspect they are just doing the central drainage bit first, and fairly quickly, and will then go back and start again to do the pedestrianisation bit. Could be wrong but get that impression.
The donkey sanctuary were out and about on the Balcon de Europa today, complete with donkey and all in festive garb. Ho ho ho.
Midday today and the Marinas del Este was as busy as I’ve seen it all year, maybe seven people in total wandering around. No-one messing about on their boats this time, though. Maybe ‘cos the restaurants were closed for holidays.
A marina, of course, doesn’t need people to be successful, in fact they’d probably get in the way a bit like the ‘Sir Humphrey’ hospital which ran perfectly well without any patients.
The Council is quite happy with all the construction and other sundry licences, the owners are happy to rent out the parking spots, preferably to people who only visit their boats once every year or two so they don’t have to hire too many staff, and the government gets a bit of tax revenue. Everyone is happy. Visitors would just get in the way and increase the running costs.
There can’t be many projects here everyone ends up happy!
