just got back from Fuerteventura - its a wasteland out there

The windy rep put me off too. I think we'll see a lot more routes dropped by the cheapo airlines this year. Big articles last year in the papers with 2nd home owners complaining that Ryanair had dropped routes and they now had to drive miles to an airport. Michael O'Leary, chief exec:

"Please don't ask me to feel sorry for rich people who have second homes in France. We don't have an obligation to go on carrying them to their destinations for ever and a day. If routes don't work, we won't hang around."

It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming year with homes abroad. Things must be getting tough as I notice Spanish property companies have started spamming MSE recently.

I can buy a 1 bed detached wooden bungalow down the road from me for £75k.

One bedroomed detached wooden bungalow? We call those sheds where I come from.

You're not Kirstie Allsop are you?

The sheds are around £10k

Probably that pr ick from Polaris World - I expect Chucky would know as he bought an apartment from them shortly before deleting all his postings!

I have just spent the week out in fuerteventura and have never ever seen a holiday place so empty..as a few on here know we spend about 5 months of the year out there.
It was really bad just before xmas but we went last week and the place looks like a ghost town.

So, not much chance of getting a sh@g if i go out there next week?

They're much cheaper in B&Q.

Doubt there would be much chance if it was packed to the rafters..
