It really is beginning to feel, and look, a lot like Christmas, with seasonal panto’s, choirs, decorations and lights now adorning every corner of the Vega Baja.
The one thing that really brings it home for many local residents is the annual celebratory event hosted by the International Residents Department of the Torrevieja Town Hall, and held in the Plaza de la Constitución, the renowned ‘Carols in the Square’ a full report and pictures of which are featured on pages 1 and 2.
Inside the paper there are reports on the nighttime gang of residents tarmacking Orihuela Costa roads, a public protest at the switching on of the Orihuela Costa Christmas lights by the mayor and the Madrid ceremony finally granting a pardon to poet Miguel Hernandez, 85 years after his death in an Alicante prison.
