author: I'm looking for recommendations for outdoor furniture shops. I know Leroys etc. but wondering if anybody knows any hidden gems






The BdB shop next to te recycle park, opposit the (bleu) cash fresh at Los Gallos also has outdoor furniture. They gave me a catolog last week ****

Depends on your budget … there is a shop at the base of vejer (on the road to tarifa, a km or so before the Barbate turnoff )
Sells unusual, but quite expensive now … I previously bought a one off wicker chair for 20 euro…. you can occasionally find a bargain ****

Sklum (online) and maison du monde (3 caminos close to Leroy) ****

author: Does anyone know where the taxi rank is in Chiclana?
It used to be opposite the bus station but it seems to be gone.




I think it might be just a bit further up on right in front of the flats ****

I think you might be right as I’ve seen lots of taxis there ****

Also think one outside the Taj opposite Diwali if it’s still there ****

Down by the lower river road. ****

I think they have just moved it further along.There is also one outside the indoor market. ****

author: Anyone know where we can get one of these replacement toilet flushes. This one keeps sticking all the time.



Most ferreterías do them. Sanchez ferretería in El Colorado does for sure ****

ortega plumbing opp police station do good quality ones... ****

try spraying with an anti lime spray like via kill or rub down mechanism with vinigar leave a good ten minutes then flush thst usually cures it ****

Clean with vinegar. And remember to add vinegar to the tank during the night from time to time to dissolve lime ****

It's just the cal forming and making it stick ..as suggested clean it ..it will re occur with the new one ****

author: Quick question, might sound dumb but what type of vinegar?

mercadona do a white cleaning vinegar. ****

Get a bog (sorry) standard ballcock set up the old ways are sometimes best ****

author: BUS TO FERIA Does anyone know exactly where the Barossa bus stop for the feria is?




Depends whether you catch the number 8 or number or the number 11. The only stop they both go from in La Barrosa itself is right
outside Bollywood and La Mafia restaurants. The number 8 then goes through Aldea del Coto and the number 8 goes through Los Gallos. ****

Number 6 too ****

Is that the number 6 that stops by Venta Lopez? Does it definitely go up to and back from the Feria? ****

Yes ****

Does anyone know anywhere I can get my electronic gate key (the one you press to open the gate) copied?



It's not always possible as many keys cannot be copied/cloned. it depends on the type of gate motor, those ones have a program function on the gate motor unit itself
that accepts a new key. The gate motor documents will explain how to deal with new keys, or download the handbook using the make and model number.. ****

they couldn’t ours ****

I found it easier to buy another one from amazon, the instructions were included to set the key to the same frequency as the gate motor. ****

I bought two from Amazon for €18 and set the code myself but yours might be more sophisticated. ****

There’s a place on the Pelagatos that does it. About 15€ each ****

Cheltron ****

Just had mine copied 2 new remotes 56e CHELTRON excellent service, did them while we waited. ****
