Hello and welcome to the November issue of Soltalk . Hasn ’ t the year gone fast , next month it will be Christmas for goodness sake ! To get you in the mood we ’ ve included a few Christmas themed books in Book Talk on page 40 and the Costa Animal Society ( CAS ) are holding a Christmas Fayre this month , for details see page 44 . Later on in November why not pop into Málaga and see the amazing Christmas lights ? See page 14 for details .
On the other hand you could just go to the beach and pretend it ’ s not really happening ! Let ’ s hope the late summer weather we enjoyed in October continues this month . Although , it ’ s not helping water levels in the region and we should really be doing a rain dance instead .
Expect more British visitors this month . Apparently the UK has regained its position as the leading country from which visitors come the Costa del Sol . Around 480,000 seats on flights from the UK are expected to be available between October and December , bringing the total capacity from foreign and domestic airports to over two million seats . Airports operator Aena said 1.3 million passengers passed through the airport during September , 67 % of the total in the same month two years ago .
Let ’ s hope many of them come to Nerja and give local business a boost ! Meanwhile put your feet up and have a good read . And if you haven ’ t done so already , please like us on Facebook ! Thank you . We hope you have a great month , and enjoy this issue !
