It's good that you are not here now!! Storms at night and perishing during the day!!:roll: I'm just trying to sort out the practicalities of owning a car here now!! I went to the Suma office in Rojales about the car tax. Someone told me that I would be able to pay in cash for the coming year and then put the following years on direct debit! No! I gave the lady in the office my bank details and as long as I give my bank a copy of the form it the money should be paid over next year. She also gave me all the blurb for logging on to the Suma office and paying the coming year's tax on-line. The logistical bit is that all the documents will be sent to my Spanish home when I am not here - and so I will have to get someone to go to the postbox, open the letter and put the document with the rest of my car papers. The ITV - also due this year - is going to be another logistical problem - getting the car down to the ITV station and making sure that the battery isn't flat! A very good friend has kindly offered to help me out with one - but these are all little probs that I hadn't previously focused much attention on!!;)Jan wrote:We are back at the end of March,can't wait for some Quesada sunshine !
