The Changing Scene!

8/10/2017

'When it rains, it certainly rains!'

Gran Alacant finally had a taste of winter yesterday. The heavens opened and the rain came down by the bucket load. Earlier in the day LoungeD paid host to the Monte Mar bowls and Social club and their international counterparts. We opened our doors at 9.30am, serving tea and coffee to all those who took park and would like to congratulate our home team for their success.

Luckily the Bowls club missed the worst of the weather, which hit Calle Holanda about 3pm, flooding roads, in a deluge of torrential rain. Trapped at LoungeD, I spent an interesting few hours, talking to cutomers. The people who live in Gran Alacant are friendly, open and always willing to pass the time of day, part of the reason we love living and working in this part of Spain.

The weather is changing as winter fast approaches. Daytime temperatures are still a pleasant 28-30 degrees, but at night there is a distinct chill in the air. I've put on the winter duvet, the cats are getting in bed each night and in a few weeks the electric blanket will be out.

I hope all our customers are enjoying the changing scene; we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Happy travelling!
