So what do the forum members do on a Sunday? Any good ideas for entertainment?
Mojaca
a stroll along the new prom,
lunch,
walk the lunch off
totally enjoy it as it was meant to be, a day of rest- I love sundays here, like the old days in england, no shops open (in this area- just in case someone says you can shop) I am one strange woman I hate shopping.

That's why the banks don't need to work on Saturday or Sunday!
As for me, since I retired Sunday no longer has a specific agenda as everyday is the weekend that never ends! After 40 years at work (latterly 7 days per week) I feel I deserve it!
However, regarding the original question on what to do on Sundays, this area is so beautiful and has some fantastic scenery, lots of good dining and the coast only 30 minutes drive away. What's more, the weather generally allows us to do whatever we prefer. We are spoilt for choice!

Im still looking for a cheap HD to plate up in spain,the sports stuffs great but more than an hour is getting to be a challange lol
Well, been for a walk round Mojacar village, coffees on the new viewpoint. Browsed the little shops then down to PC for lunch in bar and finally a stroll along the new prom watching the last of the holidaymakers enjoying the sun. Soon be just us residents to enjoy the peace and quiet.
Oh and Tetley a mass of bikers around and on the motorway to Hercual Overa.
Go to a great church!

Take in one of the excellent local football teams.
Today it was Cuevas del Almanzora versus Garrucha (local derby so plenty of off the ball incidents - even the GC got involved and the ambulance had to take off one of the poor unfortuntaes who appeared to have broken his leg).
I can provide a link to the locals if anyone is interested.
Dinner's in the slow cooker - chicken, peppers, tomato, onion and herbs. Made a load of lemon curd, limoncello and then some lemon mousse/cream for pudding later with crunch topping and raspberries. Sunday's a great cooking day for us. Wrote half an article for a magazine and another scene for my book. Just about to sit in the sun with a good book and relax for an hour!
So much to do and see on a Sundays in this beautiful area, just get out and enjoy it, and also the enjoy the fact the shops are shut.

I just hang around, waiting for Monday to come :88:
For us Sundays are spent doing laundry, cleaning, gardening, etc then the rest of the week is ours to enjoy :clap:
What about a cycle or motorbike ride :c029:

i luved my CBR 600 i had a 98 one new,or orange & graphite colour,handled wonderfull and warp factor performance,not that far short of a fire blade as well but more comfy.
I had a couple of CBR 600's lovely bikes, but my ZX6R was the one for me, road or track, brilliant, especially through the Ogwen valley towards Betws- y- coed. :08:

We used to go out on our bikes too on a Sunday, a 1200cc Suzuki Bandit (hubby) and a 600cc Suzuki Intruder (me) ......then stop somewhere for a cream tea in full leathers and full helmets......got some funny looks and comments from people, but thoroughly enjoyed it......Sundays here usually spent at the coast - San Juan, Garrucha or Mojacar....just for a stroll along the front followed by a light lunch and a glass or two....lazy but enjoyable !!!
On a Sunday I will usually:-
1) Do the chores then feed the dogs, feed the cats, feed the chickens
2) Go for a 40 + mile bike ride
3) Have a shower
4) Have lunch and watch the Grand Prix (if on)
5) Bake some bread
6) Have a BBQ
7) eat and relax
Donna, Nibbler - you go WHERE? To church? And here was I thinking we were the only crazies around :You_Rock_Emoticon: here
