More Golf
Hi Guys if any of you would like a days golf check out The Union Jack Golf Society Benidorm Costa Blanca we play every Thursday at Villaitana on the par 62 course 30€ including Buggy all are welcome including Ladie's (some Society's dont have female members but we doMeeting Places
Saturday night we have arranged to meet in Sinatras at 8pm, smack in the middle of the english square, just a little further up on the opposite side to the Hotel Orange..We have got the outer area, big enough for a large group with its own barapplauseThey have agreed to provide snacks and tapas, but this is Spain so fingers crossed.laugh
Sunday we have the Tropica bar at 7pm, opposite the hotel Levante followed by a meal in a chinese a few doors down at 8pm.
We can then return to the Tropica as they have live entertainment all night.
Sunday afternoon , should anyone want it ..there is a live band playing at the Daytona beach bar...on Levante beach from 4pm, it does get very busy there tho so its just a case of turn up and meet folk rather than being able to organise a seperate area for us with management.
I will be mailing everyone on the list with detailed info in the next couple of days.
All places can be easily found if you need to take a taxi then if the driver doesnt know the bars he will know the hotels.
The weather seems to be getting better so hopefully it'll be warm..yesterday was 24 C so if it stays at that it'll be great.
Look forward to meeting everyone and any queries please mail either myself or steve.

Just for you Ralph, it might be common knowledge but a few places will not change Jock banknotes.RE: Accommodation
On the plus side with the place it was clean and handy to central boozer areas.Down side they took 150 Euro breakage deposit which was useless to us when we were going home had to change it back to sterling which meant we lost out exchanging twice.
Reception is a bar and if busy you can wait while the barman does other work. Check in is 5pm which is no problem if you arrive in evening.
