Weather forcast Ive seen is looking good for the next 7 days
only wednesday/evening showing a bit of rain and cloud..there will be plenty of sun but what does it matter just being in Arillas is enough

After several rained off events this weekend, i am looking forward to two weeks in arillas even more, and i agree with you Ang i would rather be in the rain in arillas than in cold, wet Bristol.

does anyone know the exchange rate in Arillas at the moment and what fees are being charged, the best rate i've found in this country is 1.06 to the pound but that is online.

Hi Pete and Naomi, dont know what the rate is in Arillas but I changed £200 on friday at a local travel agency and got 1.09 euro which was quiet good...my bank were 1.06 and the post office 1.04.

I always prefer to do my exchange in arillas.

Ang, how do you change in Arillas without an ATM. My Visa Debit card won't work in San Stefanos and the only one I found last yea,r that worked, was in Kassiopi. I am tempted to just take my full spending money in Euros, but I would rather not.

I've just had 1.10 from Tesco. it's on line or phone 08456006667.
Free 24hr delivery if £500.
Also if paid by Tesco credit card there's no cash advance fee or comission. (M and S also do this but their rate is normally a point lower than Tesco.
If you pay by debit card there's normally a charge by the bank.

1.096 with Thomas Cook on the high street today. I'm also trying their passport, where you pre-pay a card with euros then use it as a debit card. 2E to get it out of an ATM, nothing otherwise. It uses MasterCard.

I tried changing in Arillas earlier in the year, but got a better rate at home.

My son got 110 from an American express travel shop on saturday in Notts . We've always found them decent and they match anyone else  Also Euro exchange are normally good and will give you a better rate if you get  £1000 worth . Hope this helps

A lot of travel agencies give you a better rate the more you exchange, we changed £600 before we went and got 110.05 from Thomsons, you have to ask though.

It is a record. For the first time since we have followed it, which is many years, it is slightly hotter here than it is in Arillas. Jen has a gizmo on her laptop's desktop which follows the temperature in both places and she just shouted wey-hey! it's the same now! 26 degrees in both. And a minute later it was 27 here, 26 there. Eat yer heart out Arillas - the UK is warmer than you! Not that it matters one little bit. It lasts longer there....

Well, Phil - we're sitting on our balcony at Horizon at the moment, It's 19.10, lovely and warm, still in shorts, and watching the beginnings of a beautiful sunset .... It will all be waiting for you and Jen to enjoy very soon x

Hi, Janis.  Not jealous at all.  Well, maybe a little bit!     Wish we were there with you.
Continue to enjoy!
  Beat wishes, Paul

PS  Weather superb in the Swansea Valley!

Janis meluvver, I'm not jealous. Believe that and you'd believe that David Cameron believed in unions...

In my head I'm sitting with Jen on Horizon deck drinking black russians..... having eaten Katerina's cooking at Thalassa. Will have to wait a while for that.

In any case, you and Barry just soak it all up. Give viv and pete our very best, and take advantage of where you are. You don't have to tell me about it - I already know. Have a great stay at home in Arillas.

Phil
PS Paul, it's like summer here too. But my head is you-know-where
