    Nothing to do with this. But what happened about the illegal new semi detached house in Salobrena. By the restaurants. I thought she had been told to knock the illegal build down or at least the top floor. To bring it in line with the other house roofs.
    Must be nice to have mates still in power. !?
    I don’t get to town much. So if it’s obeyed the orders given. Then I apologise for not knowing. Ok. !!

    I often see workers here. Doing stuff at height. Scaffolding. But no safety bars . As you often see in the UK. Put your trust in god. I guess. At least they had netting. In place to stop falling stuff hitting pedestrians. ??
