Default upcoming visit

First timer, please be gentle ! Coming out to P.P 01/10/13, anything happening in the town around that date ?
Can't wait to catch up with old friends.
Will be celebrating (?) significant birthday whilst on holiday, may even be tempted to "push the boat out", and have a sherry, just the one of course .

When we were in P.P last Oct', there was a cycling event taking place, is this an annual event?

Thank you for the welcome Sparky. Have been using P.P website for a long time. Decided to take "the bull by the horns", so to speak, and join the forum.

Hi everyone. I'm Colette and will be returning to PP with my husband Ken on Oct 15th. I have recently retired from my job in Banking and Ken and I decided to rent an apt for 12 months to live the dream. We have been holidaying in PP for the last 10 years so this is very exciting for us.
Any useful tips will be greatly appreciated.

Hello and welcome to the forum Colette, i hope you enjoy living your dream as much as i have. PP is a very different place in winter but if you mix with the locals as well as the ex pats you will be fine.
Don't be afraid to ask specific questions on the forum or you can always PM me and i will do my best to help .

Hi Colette, welcome to the forum, I'm sure you will find lots of interesting and very useful reading on here, especially in the thread 'Living and Working......'. We have recently moved out to PP and with the help of friends and information gained from the forum our move has been a positive experience.

We have also joined ESRA (English Speaking Residents Association), very nice people with lots of activities, short breaks and talks from organisations like the British Consul, finance and tax information, etc. money raised is donated to local charities.

As Sparky says, winter is different in PP but to me it brings a natural beauty which you do not see in the Summer. Good luck and I hope your trial will be a means to an end

Default my first post at long last!

Hello all. Been using this site for years but this is my first post. Mary and I are going to spend all this winter in Gotmar so I thought I'd introduce myself and hopefully get to know some of you.
We arrive 1st November so I'd like to break the ice beforehand and maybe get a few tips from you old-hand expats.
