Psychedelic Days

There’s an old saying about the 60’s that suggests if you can remember it, then you weren’t there. Well, Patrick Campbell-Lyons was definitely there and can remember a great deal of it very well indeed. Thankfully, he decided to sit down and record those memories in a new book called Psychedelic Days.

March is Here

Well, thank God March is here! With the weather this bad, I wonder what to expect this month. If the rain doesn’t stop I’ll be thinking about getting myself a pair of rubber boots!

Dr. Animal

We are very pleased to announce the arrival of a new veterinary practice to the village. Situated in Calle Alhambra, opposite the town square, Dr. Animal will offer all the veterinary services you could want, and even a dog grooming service as well.

St. Patricks

Last year, the only place to be in the village on St. Patricks Day was El Ancla, and it looks like the evening of 17th March will be one to remember again.

Sports Ground Opens

Once again the Mayor turned up in La Herradura during February, this time it was for the inauguration of the new sports ground in the Las Maravillas area of the village.

Avenida de la Alpujarra

As Vanessa has mentioned above, the road works on Lanjarón’s main street continues to drag on in waterlogged obstinacy. The barrage of rain is an obvious reason for this delay, although if rain stopped work in a place with a climate like the UK, nothing would ever get built there, would it?

Undermined?

It was back in 2004 when the Seaside Gazette reported on what appeared to be the commencement of an illegal build next to Urbanización El Gallo, Punta de la Mona.
