No….just inconsiderate to pedestrians on the busiest street in Nerja.
No extension ladders in sight so it looks like it is just the ground floor being painted but they have blocked all the pavement so everyone has to walk on the road! rant over LOL

The film crew that were here in Nerja last year were here to make a video for Spanish Pop Star Capitan Truxton for his new single released this week. It might not be your kind of music but it does show Nerja off to the world

There is still snow on La Maroma near Velez Malaga that can clearly be seen from Nerja.
Work continues on El Barrio with the entrance area from Plaza Cavana almost complete now. The next 60/70 meters one side is complete.
The work on replacing the old fencing on the paseo at Torrecilla is coming along splendidly and at 10am everything stops for breakfast.
Sadly the streets where you can see the old cobbled style have all but disapeared in the town and most streets now have cast concrete with the cobble effect. However Calle Tracos which runs between Calle Pintada and Los Huertos still has a reasonably good example of the old pebble finish.

Thanks to Maureen Napier for the photograph of Torrecilla beach in Nerja taken in 1985 before the paseo was built and when you could still park right on the beach. click here

Tobacco prices have risen today, my packet of fags now costs 4.10 an increase of 25 centimos on the old price.

The second annual craft fair that was held this weekend in Plaza de Espana behind the town hall had around fifty stalls and was deemed such a success that it has been announced that it is to be held every month which can only be a good thing.
When the first suggestions to relocate the Tuesday (street) market out of town were made by the town hall, the market traders suggested Plaza Espana as an alternative but this was dismissed by the town hall.
