Flora MaDonald Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 In typical Flora fashion, I've got a chance of a job in Spain - the timing couldn't be better. Does anyone on here live there? If so, any good? What's the feeling about Brexit? I met the geezer in the weej last week, and he wants me out for an interview over there. The cash is pretty shit, but it's free accommodation. The only person I'd miss is my maw, so it's nae great upheaval. It's down in Valderamma (nr Malaga). My Spanish isn't that bad, but if it's full of Cockney gangsters, then it's not for me.

Duncan Blackheart Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I thought Malaga was a great place when I went. Was only there a day, but thoroughly enjoyed it. There are a few wannabe geezers and their molls out there, but they are easily avoidable. May as well go out for the interview with a couple of days either side and see what u think. take sun cream.

wellyman Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 I have worked in various parts of Spain and not far up the road from Valderrama is Estepona , great place to live and well worth a look . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLAS Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Stayed in Los Pacos (next door to Fuengirola, Malaga) for around a year. Was brilliant. Learned a wee bit of Spanish to get me by but mostly used English. Food and drink is cheap, as is housing. Great weather, good fishing. What's not to like! Get a motor and you've got plenty to do in the south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weekevie04 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Why not, Flora. Give it a go. Sounds a great job too. And with the budget airlines and their offers you'll be able to go visit your mum and vice versa every 5-6 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 How soon would you be going out ? One of my mate's is heading there this weekend with his family for 2 weeks and I'd like to give him fair warning and the chance to cancel his trip ? I'd say go for it and enjoy every minute.

killiefaetheferry Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Sometimes you need to take a chance. I have just taken a redundancy and intend to re-train by doing a post-grad for primary teaching. As soon as the decision was made I felt like I had a real purpose again and have thrown myself into making sure I get on the course. Different for you if you enjoy your current job but what an adventure to go on..............new lifestyle, great weather, beautiful women, healthy booze culture, nice city on your doorstep.........I would say do it. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
