Hi,
A good website and I like the mag too!!
but ---- do you ever check your received letters before
you put them in?? - I think not....... its just too easy
to damage good reputations on the strength of a letter
- had it occured to you that sometimes the letters are
just malicious untruths ...... ::

Beware
of Shoddy Tradesman!!
Having lived on the Island of Lanzarote for 15 years now
I would just like to offer some free advice to everyone.
In recent years the amount of "Profesional Tradesman"
has spiralled beyond belief.
After the recent storm that battered our Island, The frightening
truths of bad workmanship has shown its true colours.
In the past few days I have seen patio floors sunk by
as much as a foot!, Badly laid roof felt torn off completely,
Satellite dishes have been torn from roofs due to lack
of fixing, pergolas torn out and vanish etc... The list
goes on!
So a word of warning, Be very selective who you choose
to undertake work for you as the Storms will haunt us
again!! :: Submitted Sunday,

HI
MESSAGE TO ANYONE WHO IS BUYING OR NEEDING MAINTENANCE/MANAGEMENT
FOR THEIR PROPERTY. My husband and I have purchased a
2 bedroom apartment on the brand new complex of El Palmeral
Costa Teguise. We arrived on the 9th Nov to find the apartment
in a mess, no electric, wires hanging where light fittings
should be. We had called various D.I.Y. contacts on the
Island but no one returned our calls. We started to panic.
By chance we found a flyer in our letter box from a chap
called Andy Adams. We have to say he was amasing. He came
the following morning and then for 4 days took us around
the island to all the furniture, electical, houseware
shops. Then he put curtain poles up, bathroom fittings,
shelves, lights etc. He and his wife Sue became friends
and they are now going to manage our property for us.
They were very helpful, and didn't charge the earth for
doing it. Their daughter Gemma is also offering a babysitting
service.So if you become stuck like !
us, please call Andy & I'm sure he'll help you out.

Hi
Everyone!
Having lived on the island up to the ages of 15 and 17
respectively, myself and my girlfriend are looking to
move back after both finishing University. She is a newly
qualified Doctor (specialised in Paediatrics) and I'm
a graduate of LSE (London School of Economics) with a
degree in International Business and Corporate Relations.
I speak fluent spanish and she can speak it fairly well.
My main query is whether there is a Job Centre type shop
in Lanzarote that can deal with the more highly qualified
job vacancies, and not just bar staff type work.
Stephanie would obviously like to work in a Hospital/Doctors
Surgery and I would like to work for an organisation (E.g.
I know Proctor and Gamble are on the island) or a Hotel.
Does anyone have any information on this? We still hold
valid DNI's/residencia's etc. ::

Buying
and letting apartments is
not as easy as it may seem. We have two on the island,one
is a long let and the other holiday let. Yield is 15%
on the holiday and 7% on the long let. Please remember
that buying is the easy bit,maintaining is a different
issue with insurance, community, electric, water, rubbish,
insurance, cleaning, maintenance etc etc soon erode income.
If having two apts in Lanzarote was the answer to early
retirement I would have moved there a long time.

We
visited your island in june 2002 and spent a lovelly
holiday in Costa teguise, we would like to know if Shooters
is still going strong? Does Val still stand at the bottom
of the stairs and guide people to Shooters , were we used
to get some fantastic meals and the staff were great to!!
We shall be returning to Costa Teguise next year and would
like to know if there is any one on the island who has
trips to see dolphins or whales. Have been to Tenerife
and had a lovelly 3hour trip on the Glass bottom boat,
out of Los Gigantos, and would have thought that dolphins
and whales would be seen in the waters off Lanzarote.
Miss the island and cannot wait to get back there.

Fraudulent
retailers of digital cameras in Playa Blanca
I returned this morning (8 October 2005) from a
holiday on your wonderful Island, and have discovered
that I have been the subject of a fraudster in the purchase
of a digital camera in one of the high street shops in
Playa Blanca.
The retailer concerned sold me a Digital Camera valued
at about •150.00 for the sum of •648.00. This
purchase was made on the basis of his "expert"
advice in comparison with the technical specifications
of a Nikon 8700 camera.
Is there any Agency that I can turn to in Lanzorote in
order to have this matter investigated and this fraudulent
retailer put out of business and perhaps the monies returned.
On the retailer's own admission and on evidence produced
in the course of our discussions, I was only one of many
upon whom, on that same day, the same fraudulent transaction
had been successfully carried out.
This was only one of the fraudulent attempts made in the
course of my dealing with this retailer and his enthusiastic
assistant. It appears to be the normal manner of doing
business in that shop.
I otherwise had a wonderful holiday on your Island and
it is a pity that this particular type of activity should
be allowed to damage its image.

I
am a hobby geologist and I am monitoring earthquakes
all over the world via a network that's operating
world wide and got its headquarter in Berlin (Geoforschungszentrum
Potsdam) http://www.gfz-potsdam.de/geofon
When I discovered the article of an earthquake in Lanzarote
I was immediately suspicious - cause I didn't get an earthquake
alert for that day (at least not for the Canary Islands
region). And because I love Lanzarote (and plan moving
to lanzarote in the near future) an earthquake alert wouldn't
have gone unnoticed throgh my e-mail-account.
As a child I encountered an earthquake in the late sixties
that was about 6.5 on Richter. In this case there was
a deep sound audible that was somewhat similar to a 'screeetch'
but only 5-6 octaves lower than you would expect.
In Dec 2004 our house has been distressed about an earthquake
with magnitude 3.8 and this time it was almost not audible.
An earthquake of 2 or less on Richter will not be audible
to the human ear - at least not the movement of the Earth's
crust itself. And anyway it may not be a bang or a sound
like an explosion or a shot.
For further information you might contact me via eMail.

Dear
Sirs,
As a resident of the island, I have a dial up internet
connection, and wished to upgrade to broadband.
I saw an advert in a Canarian publication for a company
called Telefonica in English. I decided to contact them
via their website. I completed the online form in order
for them to set me up with an ADSL connection. I checked
on the site whether my locality (Arrecife) would be eligible.
They indicated that it was.
After a couple of weeks I contacted them to ask how things
were progressing. They told me that my property could
not be connected to broadband (even though at least two
close neighbours in similar houses have it).
Looking at my bank statement the other day I noticed that
the company had deducted 17.40 Euros from my account.
When I phoned them to query it, they said that it was
for a search to see whether I was eligible for ADSL and
that it was itemised on the website.
Fair enough, but I would have thought that this should
only be payable if they were successful in providing the
service. To add insult to injury, it was I who had to
contact them at my expense on these occasions.
Any comments? Martin, Arrecife ::

a lot of the messages ive just read i would just
like to say that, i have been living on the island now
for almost 20 years, i have also bought up a son on my
own with no help from anyone and here we are enjoying
this paradise and not complaing about it! It really annoys
me when people put this place down, firstly, we must not
forget that is a spanish island, its not ruled by English
law so therfore can not be compared to UK. Secondly we
DO have consumer rights here, every establishnent has
to have reclaim forms "hojas de reclamacion"
and if not should be reported. There is a consumer rights
office in the "cabildo de Lanzarote" building.
Thirdly, Hospitals, these Doctors, Nurses etc do actually
have a lot more traing than they do in UK! and are very
good at their jobs, they have all the modern equipment
and in case of EMERGENCY are seen to a lot quicker than
ive seen any where else! I think perhaps the main problem
is the communication be!
tween English speaking and Spanish speaking and although
most people here do speak a certain amount of English,
dont you think its up to us to learn their language? after
all we are in their country! ::

you have to ask the Ayuntamiento.
2) Which policestation are you talking about?As you might
know there are various ones and you can find them under
useful telephine numbers in the gazette eg the one for
Tias:0034-928 834 101 or Arrecife:928 811 317.just ask
freindly if they have s.o. available who speaks english
most of them do anyway...
3)What do local bank holiday represent in the uk?
I mean well there are different Ayuntamientos here and
all of them do have different fiesta days.Most of them
are catholic related holiday-
days some are canarien fiesta days like the dia de canarias
which is obviously related to the canarian historie....Again
you be best of asking the Ayuntamiento for further info.

COMPLAINTS FORMS
Dear readers under Spanish law every establishment open
to the public has to have complaints forms available for
customers ,you are entitled to ask for if you want to
make any complaint, in the event that they do not hand
them to you when asked for one like in the case of the
lady with the shoes you should call the local police which
has to ask for the form for you, if this is not handed
out police will make a report which you must get a copy
