I got this poster off Facebook. Looks like there is going to be a mass and a horse parade from Guardias Viejas to Almerimar this coming Saturday (24 August 2019).

The article here on the Ideal site has details of an initiative to improve glass recycling in our area.

Thanks to the La Voz de Almería site for pointing out this event. I have linked direct to the article here on the W Series ladies motor racing site for details in English.

Also, I did not know there was a motor racing circuit near Tabernas.

The article here on the La Voz de Almería site highlights the low level of rainfall in the province of Almería in 2019. In particular, not far inland from Almerimar in the Campo de Dalías there is a sever drought.

While at golf today I was chatting to a few people about parking in the marina area of town. Apparently the yellow lines in various parts of town have been repainted. Also, cars are being given parking fines if you park on the yellow line areas. Apparently they are pretty strict about it. Even if only a small part of you car is over the yellow lines they are still handing out parking tickets.

So be careful where you park. You have been warned.

PS If you do get a parking fine be sure to pay it off quickly. One of the people I was chatting to got a 200 euro fine recently. She then only had to pay 40 euros as she paid quickly. She also said that you can pay in the town hall office in Almerimar. I think it is only certain days. If I remember rightly I think she said on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Further to the earlier article about the market last weekend. The photo above and the article here are from the Ideal site.

 Last night we ventured out in the evening in Almerimar. This is an unusual event for us recently.

The article here on the Olive Press site has a neat approach to cooling the inside of your car.

Given how hot it is here at the moment I might be using this advice from the Guardia Civil Twitter account.
