Los Angeles. There are great museums are really terrific alternative theatre scene, lots of cheap indie art and performance events, great food, funky beaches and fun beaches and great parks and hills to climb. The traffic can be awful (same as London but you have to drive all the time so you feel it more). Also, huge swathes of the city are really ugly (American strip mall hideousness) but the nice pockets are really pretty and it?s a young city full of energy.

"And is spain warm enough in winter?"


Depends when, where, and warm enough for what. There isn't anywhere in mainland Spain that is reliably warm enough in January and February to go to the beach and swim in the sea, for example, but most of Spain is warm enough to feel like you have 'escaped winter'.


On the general question, again it depends on how warm you want and whether you want town/city, countryside, beach. If you want proper hot weather you need to go tropical or southern hemisphere (unless you like deserts), and if it was me I'd probably go to SE Asia, but that's largely because I've been going there every winter for the last 15 years or so. For somewhere that will be nice and warm Southern California is a good shout, but I'd go San Diego over LA. In Europe I'd either go to Spain (Barcelona or Girona) or Sicily.

      Foxes, and how to get rid

      By Sue · Posted

      Yes, they are intelligent ❤️ Various methods of deterring the foxes (aka stopping them coming and crapping on your lawn) have been suggested in this thread. If you don't want to try them, and prefer to keep clearing up the crap and complaining about it, well that's YOUR choice 🙄

      Dogs out today in unbearable heat

      By beansprout · Posted

      Weather going to be hot from today thru to weekend so I hope all dog owners walk their pooches early in the morning or in the cool of the evening. Woofers can survive the odd day without going for walkies in the heat or having to race around with their pack in the heat. Try brain games with them around the house - hid treats for them to find, given them a kong..  Mental stimulation is as good and beneficial as walkies and does tire them out.     And whilst on the subject of heat and dogs, do remember that leaving a couple of windows open while you run into a shop etc to get groceries etc …. Is not good enough / the inside of a car obviously gets very very hot… and one could be delayed in ship, thru no fault of your own - meanwhile, your woofer is suffering.  Common sense really and if you are a new owner, probably really never thought it through ie walking dogs in heat or leaving them in car in heat. The majority of people on this site are caring, supportive people only offering advice, expressing concern when they see stupidity.

      Coordinated posts intended to mould opinions and silence debate

      Weirdly (well, weird as it happened very shortly after I had posted that) I got a notice the other day (the first time in the near enough twenty years since I joined the forum) telling me I had reached my limit of "reactions". I posted a screenshot on here. However I did not actually seem be prevented  from  making any more!   What is your purpose in doing that? This is a useful, long running and well loved (by me, anyway) local forum. It provides information on matters of local interest, an opportunity to easily sell or give away  unwanted things and buy or be given things you want, information on upcoming local events and interest groups. It is also a well moderated place to discuss both local and wider issues. And it is used by a variety of different kinds of people, as would be expected - we all have different personalities, experiences and opinions, and that's part of what makes the forum such a great local asset. Since rescuing the forum when the previous admin left - it could have disappeared altogether - Joe has put and continues to put an enormous amount of work into setting it up on a different platform (?) , maintaining it, and keeping it a safe and pleasant place for everyone using it. I'm sure you and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels to me that dissecting "posters and their patterns" in the way you describe - presumably then to post the results on here?  - is just going to sow seeds of discord which could stop some people posting altogether and generally change the whole nature of the forum. I think that would be very sad, and I hope that that isn't your intention? Are you going to include your own posts in this? You have joined the forum relatively recently, and seem to be self-described as a "Pain".
