If you are going in October it is probably a too soon to be asking because everything could change between now and then. For the better, or the worse. If you look at how the world has changed in three months anything could happen in the next three.

We have flight booked for November but I have no idea if I will be going or not. I can't see the point if it is still masks and social distancing but my wife still wants to go.

All paid up with jet el sombrero in October and insurance paid

Sounds like another con, like the plaza refurb a while back.
Local Mayor/Councillor awards contract to friendly builder/contractor. (cheapest estimate out of 3, the other 2 will get the next jobs). So 200K, I imagine the local rate for a street paver would be no more than 25K per annum. So 150k would be enough to employ 6 fellas for a year! And allow 50k for materials, if they are matching existing - that would be an awful lot of block paving!
I think the real cost is closer to 100K, and the other 100k to be split between builder and council.

Of course I am only winding every one up, and that type of fraud would never happen in Spain.

Let's hope this time it won't take so long!!!

I see that the Counsel are spending €200k on repairing a couple of the small pathways around the square by the church. Hopefully they will get the same contractors in and use the same tiles and workmanship standard that they used on the revamp 3 or 4 years ago.

It looks so good. Would not want it to look tatty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!AND UNFINISHED AND A WASTE OF MONEY
