Hi Funsters, 3 things I have to tell you:

1st: We won't install the electricity meters until April, so until then you will enjoy free electricity in your pitches.

2nd: We would appreciate any suggestions regarding the products you would like to see in the supermarket.

3rd: It was nice meeting Salopian and I hope to meet some other funsters in the next days.

Cheers

Raimon
 
Hello, I wonder if any of the Funsters or Raimon, already at Marjal, could let me know if all the tickets are sold, and if not any details as we are not arriving until the 10th, and by then it may be to late. JJ has said his people tell him that it is getting sold out.
 
My two penny worth !!

A few of my suggestions Raimon.

Blue toilet fluid (stocked at Coviran Zahora)
Custard powder.
Fray Bentos Pies or similar frozen,
A selection of meat other than Pork and Burgers, not even chicken in there !
Chinese and Indian Cooking Sauces.
Noodles for above.
Mango chutney.
UHT cream..(Nata para Montar in the Consum) Need that for Stroganof !!!

I am sure others will be along with their suggestions ! (Edit !! That's a bit daft as there are not many here yet !!....stupid boy that I am !)

Thanks for looking after us !! Stephen.

I just spoke with the organizer, and she says there is no problem at all with the tickets for the festival, as they are not sold in advance, you buy them on arrival. But on Friday night there is a Square dancing party which costs 3€ and on Saturday night there is another Country related party costing 6€, for this party there are still 50 tickets left, so if you want to book for any of the night parties you should contact Angie at angiemarjal@yahoo.co.uk

Cheers

The supermarket is improving anyway daily but there is still a shortage of fresh meat. The only choice today was sausages or burgers. I went into Catral and bought some pork.
I would love to see some beef, preferably not in a processed or tinned format. Just plain simple beef steaks would be heaven. Very rare in all supermarkets here though.
I did call in to reception this morning but I think you were out.

When you getting here????

If it`s within the Rally times or before, dont bother I have a 30 mtr length you can have/borrow/buy... just need the plug that goes into the site box.. I have some "F" plugs.. :thumb:

Or if you want to bring your own 30ft should be ample..
 
Rock on Tommy !!

A couple of doors down from the "English" shop is a bar called Long's Bar, owned and run by June, an English lady who has been in Spain for 23 years !

I am having a Sunday lunch there tomorrow !

Starter....Stilton stuffed mushrooms.
Main.......Roast Beef with all the usual bits and pieces !
Pud........A variety, all look good !
Other selections are available !

And the price ?......8 Euros 50 .:thumb::thumb::thumb:

She does daily meals from 5 Euros 50.:thumb:

I have also sourced another supermarket that sells Beef ! Now I need to find some Duck !:Rofl1::Rofl1::Rofl1:

I appreciate the fact that some funsters want "The Spanish Experience" But some of us want the good ole taste of home !!!

I want "The French Experience".....Although I am looking forward to a Paella cooked by our lovely Frankie as a reward for finding her an outlet for a special Paella Pan !:france:

P.S. I am having home cooked Chinese tonight ! :Rofl1::Rofl1::Rofl1:

Edit .....They also have free wi-fi !

From the reading of this thread I and others are missing out on a good rally at a great site.

Will there be a Marjal 2013?

Portsmouth - Santander tomorrow

Final packing to set off tomorrow, looking forward to meeting the 'Marjal Funsters'.

Bringing our own food for the Ferry crossing. :Doh:

Carol (Mrs Motorhome)
 
Somehow I have managed to be landed with a load of work which has eaten into my preparation time... what is worse is that I will not be able to do it all before the meet so will have to take some with me... :cry:

However, it is still going to be a BRILLIANT meet and I am really, really excited... :thumb:

Please note the Hymer won't be quite as shiny as I had planned it to be...:Sad:

JJ :Cool:

Hi Carol, we are doing the same as we are on the same ferry as you. Perhaps we will meet up on the boat for a chat. We have an AutoSleeper Ravenna with the compulsory Funster stickers fore and aft.
Safe journey.

See you all soon

At last, van now packed and apart from a few last minute things I am ready to catch tonights ferry from Portsmouth to Le Havre. :thumb:

Stoping off near Bordeaux and Saragossa and hope to be at Marjal late Saturday. a day earlier than I first planned.

Looking forward to some warm(er) weather to get me going again. I am convinced I was a reptile in a former life and need the sun to get the old limbs going.::BigGrin:
