I have just spotted that I missed out on advertising a concert taking place on the rugby pitch last night. It was advertised here on the Ideal site yesterday.
With a couple of active coronavirus outbreaks in the Poniente area of Almería I would hope that people might be playing it safe. So not attending such events. Or wearing masks and ensuring they keep to social distancing if they do attend.
This becomes even more important now that we seem to be getting more people coming to Almerimar. From other parts of Spain and overseas.
I forgot to post this yesterday.
I was reminded yesterday that it is a local bank holiday in El Ejido today.
Irene from the tourist office in Almerimar has sent me this document about 2020 summer events.
The council has announced the summer 2020 cultural programme here.

Here is something for people to do on Saturday and Sunday: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1066664150378119/
I found out about it due the story here on the Euro Weekly News site.
What a great idea. Well done to the organisers.
I spotted this poster around town earlier today.
I received this information from a reader, Nick P:
"Our Wednesday quiz at the Espigon resumes this Wednesday, please could you promote this event on your web site, it starts at 8.00 for 8.30."
I( was in the tourist office this morning doing stuff to do with the council. While there I asked for details of upcoming events. I was given the posters above.
The photo above was from the road outside Mercadona.
You can see more details about the Clásica de Almería 2020 here on their website. It looks like they come in along the coast from Guardias Viejas, go past Mercadona then leave up the hill.
In the next few days there will be a Galleon on show in Almerimar.
Shame that I will be too busy on Saturday night.
I mentioned this a while ago when the Spanish ladies rugby team were training in El Ejido.
The article here on the Euro Weekly News site has details of the upcoming international match against Scotland this coming weekend.
We held our first progressive whist event in Almerimar yesterday. 16 players learned how the game was organised and played. We had a very enjoyable time.
We will be playing again next Tuesday (21 January) starting at 4pm in the Pensioners Centre at the back of Porto Fino.
It is very much a mixed ability group so please do not be frightened to come along.
If you are interested in joining us please get in touch. I will then add you to the Whatsapp group for the events.
I picked this up off Facebook.
Fancy watching some ladies rugby training in advance of an international match against Scotland?
UPDATED: The poster says that the international match is in Almería. In the Juan Rojas stadium at 12:00 on Sunday 19 January. It is in small writing on the poster.
