Now that we’ve appreciated the importance of awareness, what’s next? Simple, ASK for feedback. That will be your second step in deepening your awareness of your public speaking skills. However, this is a step that most people, read egomaniacs, have trouble with. (smile)

If you find yourself overreacting or in denial, you are one of them! Destroy your defense mechanism for a while and see if this “know-it-all” (that’s me!) has anything worth listening to. We are all self-aware people and naturally, in our right frame of mind, we would like to be complimented. And this is not a bad thing. It motivates you. He tells you what your audience likes. But if you plan to tune out the criticism or suggestions your audience has for you, you will lose out in the long run. You will have no idea of ​​your blind spots (see First A: AWARENESS) and have deprived yourself of taking your public speaking skills to another level.

So where should you start? Here’s something I use frequently and it works great for me. Try it for size!

BEFORE HIS SPEECH Get 2-3 trusted friends in your audience to evaluate your speech. (If you don’t know anyone, then make at least 1-2 friends before you go on stage. It’s part of my “Build Trust” strategy that I’ll develop in another post.) Tell them that you are working on a few areas. Let’s say slow down, add a story, or practice role-playing. Anything. And ask them to be your eyes. The most important thing is to tell them to be honest. No patronizing (leave it to the rest of your audience). That’s why you have to trust them! You can ask for more eyes if you feel comfortable. In my opinion, the more, the better. If possible, find every opportunity to record your speech. Esp. if it is a humorous speech, you can judge the success by the intensity of the laughter of your audience. And if you can record your speech on video, even better!

And then proceed to do your thing!

AFTER HIS SPEECH

Ask your friends for feedback, tell them to be honest and objective. Did you manage to do the things you told them you would do? Did it work for you? How could you improve? How did you feel as an audience?

Solicit feedback from your audience as well. Ask them what they like and dislike about your speech. Tell them to be honest (if you honestly don’t mind). And as they share their feedback with you, you can take mental notes or jot them down. These are some of the questions I will ask you. What do you think my message is? Is there something unique in my speech? How could it improve? From the point of view of the audience, do you have any suggestions for me? Notice that there is no negativity in my questions. Do that. Your audience is more likely to be honest with you. Because a question like “Do you think I have a weakness in my way of speaking?” you’ll often garner condescending responses like “Of course not. I love your speech!” And even if they do that, ask them what part of your speech they like. But why do they like your speech?

In short, dig in! Collect as much information as you can. This will come in handy in your third part when you take ACTION!

What I have shared with you only works if you go in with the mindset of wanting to be a better speaker. It’s BS if you think there’s nothing you can improve. Even the best public speaker in the world can take his oratory skills to a greater height. And since you are not, there will always be room for improvement for you. (smiles) The question is do you want to be better than your last performance? If so, change your attitude. Be fair to yourself: ask for feedback!

We usually think of stalkers as big, scary men. We did not imagine that they could take the form of small and spiteful women. Most of us have observed that in elementary and middle school, bullies come in both genders, but we still tend to think of them as physically intimidating and physically threatening men.

In reality, there is a type of emotional bully that is much more dangerous and destructive than any physical bully. The physical bully is usually a person who was bullied as a child by someone bigger and stronger. They take out their hurt and angry feelings on peers who seem smaller and weaker than they are. There are several effective ways to deal with these types that I won’t go into here.

The emotional bully is a different creature. This person usually has a condition known as borderline personality disorder, or BPD, which is characterized by a number of different signs and symptoms. Those with milder cases have terrible fears of abandonment, chronic feelings of emptiness, and a habit of pushing away those who would love or help them.

Those with a more severe and destructive form of the condition suffer from extensive mood swings, self-destructive behaviors, various addictions, excessive and uncontrollable anger, and extreme susceptibility. These people take offense at things that normal people would never consider a slight, and they are quick to take revenge.

Anyone who has had the misfortune of dealing with someone from the latter group knows how far this type of person will go to satisfy their need for revenge. Paradoxically, in their quest for so-called “justice”, these Borderline individuals are the ones actually causing harm, as opposed to the person who supposedly “harmed” them.

The word “Borderline” was originally used to describe this condition because some of the ideas these people have are so irrational and some of their beliefs are so unrealistic and rigidly fixed that they appear almost psychotic. This condition, when severe, is considered bordering on insanity.

People who have a milder version of the disorder can do very well in therapy. They can function quite well in their lives and tend not to cause too much trouble for themselves or others. The most severely affected individuals tend to be “troublemakers” who engage in self-mutilation and/or destructively interfere in the lives of others.

They pit people against each other, technically known as “division,” and they cause a lot of suffering to the people they live and work with. They are manipulative, passive-aggressive, unreasonable, headstrong, erratic, and highly impulsive. They get under people’s skin. If you frequently find yourself talking to your co-workers about a colleague or supervisor who makes many of you incredibly angry and frustrated, this person most likely has borderline personality disorder.

Individuals with BPD can be so filled with anger that they go to great lengths to “punish” those they feel have caused them some sort of offense. This can take the form of legal threats, blackmail attempts, stalking, and other types of harassment. The supposed offenses to which they react are virtually always imagined, but the feelings of anger and revenge of these disturbed individuals are very real.

Unfortunately, people with severe BPD are prone to further escalating a situation if the other person tries to defend themselves. In their disturbed mind, they perceive the person’s self-defense as an offense against them. Sometimes the best way to deal with such a person is to end all contact with them. This could mean changing jobs, moving to a new home, or giving up certain hobbies or activities. Seems like a drastic response, but “Hell hath no fury like a scorned Borderline.”

Our courts are overburdened enough these days and are actually seriously lacking when it comes to understanding and addressing the legal ramifications of mental disorders. Until such time as there are legal protections for the kind of bullying and harassment that is so typical of the very sick person with BPD, it is up to us to make ourselves less of a target for these people by withdrawing from contact with them and hoping that they no longer follow. pursuing his disturbed and destructive agenda.

Obviously, this is not to say that we shouldn’t try to defend ourselves and protect ourselves from attacks on our safety and well-being, but it is important to understand that people with BPD tend to be adept at using the legal system to their nefarious advantage. In their general sense of vengeful entitlement, they manipulate the legal system and use any legitimate and illegitimate means necessary to exact revenge on those they hold a grudge against.

Some comfort to their victims might be to recognize that people with severe BPD are deeply unhappy. They are unable to form normal, healthy bonds with others, and their relationships are characterized by chronic conflict and frustration. They are constantly irritable and agitated, but they are unable to calm this discomfort. They are as self-destructive as they are harmful to others, living lives of loneliness, alienation, and meaninglessness.

If we are unfortunate enough to have had dealings with someone with a severe case of BPD, we can remember that however much they made us suffer, it was only temporary, while their unhappiness is endless. They are plagued with paranoia, rage, and revenge. As much as I mistrust such individuals, I can’t help but feel compassion for them, since one of the worst places in the universe to be is inside the troubled mind of someone with severe BPD.

For a challenging job in the Navy, I decided to leave my pretty Celine at home with a caretaker, Tim. Like any couple in love, we had many aspirations. But when the police listed Celine as a missing person, all my aspirations were dashed, leaving a trail of sadness and despair. I felt cheated and betrayed. Time could not erase my pain. The persistent disease in my body made me weaker every day. As I closed my eyes I began to dream. The dream led me to walk stealthily down a path to a quiet old house.

The first floor looked dusty with few croutons and orchids planted in broken pots. As I was going up the stairs I felt someone running down. ‘Sinister’, I thought. When I got to the second floor, I saw a small reception table and an old man sitting in a chair. He turned his head and looked me square in the eye. He coughed and asked me if he needed a guest room. I nodded. He looked in a register and had me sign it, he handed me the keys. I walked ahead.

The house looked old but familiar, the ticking of the clock just above my head making me feel cold and unpleasant. Late at night, restlessness increased. I found myself walking up the stairs to the terrace. It was a dark and dreary night. Something lured me toward the fireplace. Suddenly, I saw the fireplace go out and a pair of scalded and bruised female legs appeared. The darkness was great, I strained my eyes.

I could see a familiar female face, but it was in so much pain that I could barely recognize it. ”She’s trapped inside the chimney,” I panicked and rushed over to help her, but she disappeared. With my heart racing I woke up shaking and terrified. Fear gripped my throat. Dismayed, I wanted to scream but couldn’t. It is difficult to know if it was a dream or a vision. Getting on my knees I prayed for her. Celine didn’t betray me, she died a brutal death.

Wasting no time, I went to Cape Town. Arriving in Cape Town, I was able to decipher how Tim tormented her to get his fill of sex, lust and pleasure. While trying to escape from her prison, she got stuck in the chimney and Tim made no effort to rescue her from her. Our beautiful house had been turned into a boarding house. The evil of her cannot be described in words. Tim was arrested.

It saddens me to realize that even though she is in a grim death embrace, she loves me very much. I will never leave my pretty Celine alone. Sitting in my wooden rocking chair, I watch the darkness deepen. In despair, as my wooden chair sways faster, her sobs grow louder.

Impatiently, I wait for another day to dawn. I still love the singing of the birds, the buzzing of the bees, the fragrant flowers and the rays of the sun kissing my cheeks. Nature is beautiful and so is life.

All the best. rober hughes

When the Internet “began” to be commercialized in the mid-1990s, online shopping, including buying online banner printing, has gained incredible strength in the past two decades. So much force that many firms have exploded or burned -or both- in undoubtedly the most outstanding advance in consumer buying since the advent of radio and television marketing.

Online Banner Printing Industry

In my industry, online banner printing actually became popular around 2005, and some companies were responsible for the subsequent price drops that still exist in the online banner market now. But do consumers’ lives improve by getting much lower prices? Maybe. Maybe not.

Here is an example. On July 19, 2011, Borders Bookstores announced that they were closing almost all Borders stores due to the fact that too many customers came into Borders, read books, went home, and bought them online cheaper at Amazon.com or they downloaded books. on their personal devices, where they could read it whenever they chose, with the push of a button.

However, Borders was slow to adapt to the internet and caught fire as a result. My question remains, are we healthier as consumers by being able to purchase cheaper downloadable books? Maybe. Maybe not. We will know in time.

The first printing business I managed

The sign and banner printing business I managed launched our first website in 1998, one of the first online sign and banner printing companies to do. I was completely amazed at how easily buyers could find our sign company out West, even from Miami, Chicago, or New York City, on the Internet.

We were the first sign and banner manufacturing company on a new search engine called Yahoo! in 1998, and among the first 500 companies to list on Yahoo! We didn’t really know what we had at the time.

In 2000, I lobbied the owner of the company (I was the CEO) to focus a great deal of money, energy, and time on learning how to harness the power of the Internet. It was the wave of the future, I told him. I got a great response (note: the owner was also my dad, so dads, listen up… his kid can occasionally have some really great ideas, he might need to hear them!).

Finally, in 2003, I left Dad’s company and jumped into the wild and confusing world of online marketing, selling signs, displays, stickers, etc. While we’ve done very well online, we’ve also seen some negatives regarding online shopping, though they’re mostly to do with individual unidentified companies, rather than the web itself.

Online Marketing: Where You Fall Short And Why You Don’t Need To Get Scammed If You’re A Savvy Consumer

1. Unscrupulous marketers.

While these companies aren’t necessarily doing anything wrong, they often dominate the right-hand side and the highest-paying ads occupy the first pages of Google, advertising online banner printing for $1.50 per square foot. But hey, it’s marketing, right?

You know if you go there you’ll likely pay double or triple that amount for a premium banner, but those Google ads lure you in and a friendly salesperson on the other end of the email or phone line quotes. . what you really wanted at $5 or $6 per square foot which is a good price but not what you thought you would pay so you go to the next site that advertises vinyl banners at $0.99 per square foot and you end up at the same place you did on the first website!

But you wasted a couple or three hours trying to save money. Lesson learned – maybe – hopefully?

While it’s highly likely to be successful, I won’t say I’m 100% comfortable using (or abusing) that style of marketing, even if it works. Probably just resentment on my part because I’m lousy at being a huckster, but why not just say “Poor quality 50dpi inferior billboard quality banners printed on cheap china banner cloth with ink not as good for banners as you” no it doesn’t need to last more than a couple of weeks: $1.50/sqft.”

Where are those FCC agents when you really want them?

2. You cannot see the quality of the banner you would like to purchase online.

This used to be a bigger problem with custom elements like banners, but now it’s not a big concern. Vinyl banner materials are made by just a few plants, and mesh vinyl banner material comes from these few companies, and there isn’t much variation in what’s available. There are quite a few brands, but most are generally similar to other brands.

While many vinyl banner fabrics are made in China, there are varying grades of products made in China, and cost from $1.50 per square foot. footer material for banner printing is bottom of the barrel, definitely not trade show or retail class, generally fine for 50dpi billboards but not much more.

Currently, if you need to see a sample of material, you can simply request a printed banner sample; Most online banner printers will be happy to mail you a sample or two, free of charge, unless you need them tomorrow. Then you will need to provide the FedEx or UPS account number for that. This is standard at most legitimate banner printers.

Hold on! There is also some positive news for online banner shoppers and other web purchases!

1. Comfort

There are definitely pros and cons to buying banner ads online, but the biggest advantage is convenience. If you have more time than cash, or your time isn’t worth much, and you like to visit your local banner stores, you can leave your workplace and head to the banner and sign store and when you’re done, you’ll have wasted, I mean spent, unrecoverable couple of hours procuring a banner or two. But as long as you’re happy, I’m glad.

As an avid online consumer, I have purchased clothing, shoes, clothing, toys, tires, materials for my online banner printing business, car engines, golf equipment, and much more online. Because? It’s fast, effortless, and saves time and money. It will cost me $.35 per mile or more to drive my car across town, and a 20-mile drive across town takes 45 minutes and costs $7.00. You could have been writing one of these fascinating articles!

2. Name-brand products cost a little less online

Another advantage of online shopping: it can be less expensive to buy name-brand products, sometimes much less expensive. Prices in the printing business have been stable for about 20 years in many departments and have even dropped a bit in other areas.

Because? Cheaper overall cost factors. Retail store space costs a lot of money in higher rents, more heat, more lights, fixtures, and fancy displays (than a manufacturing facility), and other costs, too.

Why I Jumped Into Online Banner Printing Service

Will retail stores disappear? Probably not anytime soon, though most thriving retailers have also turned into “e-retailers,” making sure they’ve covered all their bases. That’s why we jumped into online banner printing, as well as marketing other types of printing and signs online, back in the ’90s.

Trademark means a registered trademark or mark used in connection with goods for the purpose of indicating or to indicate a connection in the course of trade between the goods and any person having the right as owner to use the mark; and a mark used or proposed to be used in connection with goods for the purpose of indicating or to indicate a connection in the course of trade between the goods and any person who is entitled, either as owner or registered user, to use the mark, whether with or without indication of that person’s identity, and includes a certification trade mark. (See Section 2(v) of the Trade Marks and Merchandise Act 1958)

In other words, a trademark is a visual symbol in the form of a word, device, or label that is applied to items of commerce for the purpose of indicating to the buying public that they are products manufactured or otherwise marketed by a particular person. as opposed to similar goods manufactured or marketed by other persons. A person who sells his products under a certain trademark acquires a kind of limited exclusive right to use the trademark in connection with those products. Such acquired right by use is recognized as a form of ownership in the mark and is protected by common law. A person can also acquire a similar right to a trade mark, hitherto unused but intended to be used, by registering it under the Trade Marks and Goods Act 1958. Trade mark law is mainly based on two concepts; Distinctiveness and misleading similarity.

trademark function

The function of a trademark is to give an indication to the buyer or potential buyer as to the manufacture or quality of the goods, to give an indication to his eye of the commercial source from which the goods come, or the commercial hands through which which pass on the way to the market. It tells the person about to buy that what is presented to him is what he has known before under the similar name as coming from a source with which he is familiar, or what he has heard before as coming from that source. similar source. It gives the buyer a satisfactory guarantee of the brand and quality of the item he is buying, the particular quality being not perceptible to the naked eye. It is on faith that the mark is genuine and represents equal quality to what he has previously encountered, a mark can be used to indicate not only that products are from a particular manufacturer but that they are products of that manufacturer of a certain type. particular or quality. Thus, a trader can indicate the best quality of it by one trademark, the second quality of it by another trademark, and so on.

In modern business conditions, a trademark performs four functions:

(1) identifies the product and its origin,

(2) guarantee its quality unchanged,

(3) advertises the product, and

(4) create an image for the product.

Object of brand protection

With the immense growth in business scale and the publicity that goes with it, modern customers rarely have that personal knowledge of suppliers that is the hallmark of a village economy. Even so, his interest in the source of supply has not changed in essence. Origin information is only a means to an end: their main concern is the quality of what they buy. In the case of some goods, part of that quality may be tied to the source in a specific way: such as when the goods will need service and the manufacturer or supplier is sought for the services. But in a large number of cases, the font, particularly when indicated by a cipher, such as a brand of product or an outfit, does not even have this meaning. What it does is allow the buyer to tie the goods or services to a variety of personal expectations about quality that derive from previous deals, recommendations from others, attractive advertising, etc. It should also not be forgotten that, however persuasive the advertiser may try to promote this type of symbol, it remains neutral in one sense: once the consumer learns that he does not want certain goods, the brand, name, or attire is removed. becomes an important warning sign.

A law that protects brands, names, and clothing accordingly seems inescapable in a capitalist economy. In several respects, however, these laws have tended to develop in a way that can appear to confer power without accountability. The owner of the trademark acquires the very important right to prevent imitations of its indication of origin, but its use itself is conditioned by few limitations of positive requirement. It is perfectly possible that the public will be taught that a box with a certain brand and package contains 500 g. of chocolates and then, through a discreet expansion of the packaging, reduce that amount to 475 grams. (See Surya Roshni Ltd. v. Samana Steel Ltd., AIR 1997 Del 321, where it was held that the claimant was entitled to temporary injunctive relief to protect his trademark).

Different forms of Trademark Protection

If the trademark is registrable, the best way to protect it is through registration. Trademark infringement can be easily established. If the infringing mark is identical and the goods are covered by the registration, the success of an infringement action is almost certain, unless the registration can be attacked for invalidity of the registration or the defendant can establish an honest concurrent user, or the acquiescence by the registered owner, or previous user. If the marks are not identical but similar, then the plaintiff will have to establish that the defendants’ mark is deceptively similar, that is, the similarity is such that it is likely to be misleading or confusing, which is not easy to establish. establish. Ultimately, the question of similarity is up to the judge to decide whose opinion can often differ.

In the case of unregistered trademarks and non-registrable trademarks, the only way to protect them is through the impersonation action. The plaintiff will need to prove sufficient use of the mark to create valuable goodwill from the business associated with the products bearing the mark.

Brand Ownership

Under common law, a trader acquires a proprietary right in a distinctive trademark simply by using it on or in connection with some goods, regardless of the user’s seniority or extent of trade. Between two who are eager to adopt the same brand, it is entirely a matter of who gets there first.

Ownership of a trademark that is intended to be used only in connection with some products may be obtained by registering the mark under the Trade Marks and Goods Act 1958.

There is no right to exclusive ownership of a mark other than its use or application in connection with any salable merchandise. In other words, ownership of a brand does not exist in thin air.

Applying for a job? Join the crowd. Literally. job loss is 9.4% and is only increasing. Now there are 14.5 million other people in the job market and it feels like they are competing with you, using the same job application cover letters. Your cover letter is your badge. It proclaims you and recommends you to recruiters. Can sample resume cover letters do that for you?

Here are two quick strategies that will make job application cover letters attract phone calls.

Create a section designed to show that you are not boring.

Look, recruiters read hundreds of resume cover letter examples a day. You have three to twelve seconds because they get really bored reading the same job application cover letters.

Fortunately, there is an easy antidote: a paragraph just for passion. At least one paragraph in your package, usually the second or third, describes your devotion to your profession, the business, the clients—anything that keeps you grounded and makes your cover letter interesting to read.

So, use suggestive, mood-setting phrases, the bold and daring, the elegiac and lively. Sample resume cover letters do not have this. And most applicants are too reluctant to give full expression to this section of their job application packet. And you can turn that to your advantage.

To exercise this aspect of your writing, envision yourself on a steamy adventure, composing a letter to sway your lover into escaping with you for a wild week. What words would you need to use to win the other person over to taking a chance on you, to give up his job and his life for seven days? Let your imagination run wild and write it all down. Then take a look at the similes and power of what you just wrote and see what you can incorporate into your example resume cover letters.

Letters are cheap, they send loads (oh, and to the same recruiter).

Normal wisdom says you can’t. And that’s true if you just repeat the same resume cover letter example above. And so no one else does.

If the vacancy is attractive, the recruiter receives hundreds of job application cover letters. Identical cover letters will be disconcerting at best and read like begging at worst. So do not do it.

Instead, use “multi-step campaigns,” numerous packages that offer incremental value each time. They draw attention like a house on fire. And repetition can be your most valuable tool. As long as the repetition isn’t just “When will you get back to me?” but “Here’s something you could use.”

Set up a Google Alert for employers when you apply and send job application cover letters whenever you discover reports you can add value to.

It’s amazing how technology has changed over the years, in terms of how things were made and how they are done now. The shoe industry is one such area where technology is now being used to create shoes and sell them on online shoe auction sites. But how do they make the shoes?

It is actually quite an interesting and complicated process. Of course, the process can vary, but some of the best Italian designers use this method to put together their seasonal collections. It all starts with the choice of shoes for the season.

The first step is to decide the type of toe and the height of the heel. The toes can be pointed, square or round and the heel can be any height you choose to make your collection stand out, so to speak. Putting up sketches of the designs puts them into perspective.

The sketches are sent to technicians who use special software to design patterns. The patterns are printed on cardboard and sent to the cutting department. This is where the leather pattern for the top is cut out.

The upper includes the lining, heel, and instep of the shoe. The average number of shoes cut from one skin is about three and a half. The staff in the cutting room do their best to cut in such a way that no skin is wasted.

All the different parts are sewn together in the sewing department. Here the toe is inserted between the lining and the instep as a reinforcement. Most shoes are reinforced to ensure they don’t wrinkle.

Another department creates the components for the soles. This includes insoles, buttresses, heels, and lasts. All shoes have a buttress that reinforces the back of the shoe. Different sizes require different lasts. The same heel is used for the round size and the medium size of the shoes.

The different components are assembled in the assembly room. Formerly the lasts were made of wood, but nowadays they are made of plastic. The last helps to shape the shoe. The upper part is placed on the last and the insole is glued to the bottom part. The heel is then dug into the sole. The last is then removed and the sock liner inserted.

In the final step, the shoes are cleaned and brushed. Bows and other embellishments are added and the shoes are packaged for shipment. The next time you buy a new pair of shoes from an online shoe auction site, you’ll know how long they’ve come.

Another effective way to find the best professional of your choice is by talking to other lawyers. You may know of another attorney who offers some other type of services. However, being in the same profession, you will be able to easily recommend a reputable attorney who can help the client file a claim for social security disability insurance. Then you can easily make an appointment with him and check if he will be able to fulfill his purpose well.

If you need an attorney who can help you obtain benefits from social security disability insurance policies, Martinsburg WV is the best place to begin your search.

It has happened to all of us, at least to those of us who decided that a holiday in a villa in Spain during the summer holidays would be great. The only problem is that we made the decision at Easter and of course all the villas we like are already booked. As a result, we end up taking whatever we can get with the inevitable consequence that it’s not a good vacation followed by a promise not to make the same mistake again.

This year, in fact last week, which is the beginning of August, we made the bold decision to book now for next July. As a family of four, with three of us active golfers, our teenage daughter will be hard-pressed to play, but she’d rather lie by the pool reading.

For this reason, we decided that it would be safer to try and book a villa on a golf course, so that our daughter was effectively behind secure gates in a club setting and relatively safe. Our additional requirements were obviously a decent sized private pool, a decent sized garden and preferably a view.

Our problems started almost immediately because many of the websites we looked at were just awful. Property descriptions seemed to have been sacrificed for pictures and insets showing the facilities, and not much descriptive writing. Happily we found quite early on a website called Owners Direct where we could indicate what we wanted. Boxes were ticked indicating four bedrooms, so the kids’ friends could stay too, a private pool, and golf. Furthermore we specify a villa and not an apartment.

The fun started right away with villas described as twenty minutes from 20 golf courses, apartments, three bedrooms, even 16 bedrooms and shared pools. Undaunted, we moved on, my wife and I facing off on our laptops and emailing our findings to each other because it’s ridiculously easy to lose a page.

Finally we found the perfect villa, frontline to a golf course, four bedrooms and within our price range, which was up to £2800 for two weeks. Availability was also good, as it was for 99% of the villas we reviewed. We emailed and called the owner, got no response, then two days later a call to say the villa was booked for the intended dates. That’s when we realized the details hadn’t been updated since June!

By the way, our maximum price eliminated many of the smartest areas in Spain, but that wasn’t really the problem. The problem is with the owners.

Our second option was promising, facing the field and everything we wanted. the photos looked fantastic, but after an exchange of four batches of emails we discovered that the photos were not of the villa, the views were not taken from the villa, which was on a road behind the golf course façade. We almost booked it so thank goodness we did some more digging.

In fact we had also used Google Earth, and this horrified us. We had no idea that golf courses in Spain are surrounded by what they call urbanisation, which is what I would call row upon row of houses like suburbs in the sun. I don’t know about you but we go on vacation to get away from our neighbors, not to live in their smoky barbeque area, because none of the yards were any size.

Mildly disappointed, we finally arrived at an old farmhouse, a five-minute drive from a golf course set in its own grounds, with excellent views and security fencing. It looks perfect, and I’m glad we kept looking.

When looking for a villa in Spain, just make sure what you want and that you are going to get it.
