Hi/Hola to all. We (Sean and Imelda), have been living back on the island since June 8th (after an 11 year absence for me). We are looking for a long let in Los Cristianos, looked at a few, still looking for the right one. Imelda has been working for Doreen and Tom in O'Jangles, a very busy bar! I have gigged a few times in Kitty's and Murphy's, about to do one in Hoops bar. I have spent plenty of my time scoping bars for rental/purchase, no decision made yet. Some interesting price reductions (example one bar has gone from over 100 k to 90k and now low 60s!)

I have noticed that parts of PDLA are having a quiet summer, and it is tragic the impact that roadworks have had on bars in Playa Azul/Las Floritas area, totally devastating trade. I have said hello to a few old faces, more to seek out. One girl Imelda works with was talking to me for over 3 weeks, every day, before it dawned on me i actually played her opening night in one of her pubs in the 90s. I will post another update soon, i see the new forum is starting to grow now, good to see names returning, and the banter is as lively as ever! Hasta Luego, Sean . (and Imelda, who worked a forum meeting shift in OJ's and met Eckythump and Sunspot among others).

Hi Sean and Imelda,
Good to hear from you. Great Imelda is in OJ's she will be kept busy. I am sure you will find the right place for you in time. I do hope you manage to find a long let before too long.

Quite a few signs up and around Playa Graciosa 1, dont know any prices but could be worth a few phone calls.

Hi Sean

Nice to see you back and so glad to hear that both you and Imelda have plenty of work. Perhaps you could consider moving up here to Chayofa, there are usually plenty of long lets available. You are close enough to the resorts and can be in work within 10 minutes but far enough away should you both require a break from the hustle and bustle. Whatever you decide best of luck to you both.
