FROM BRIAN:
Thursday's there's a very big back-street Market at Velez
Malaga. As you approach, avoid first roundabout turn to the Centre
- go on about half a mile and take the slip road leading to bridge
over road - also said for city centre, so you pass over the road
you were on. Drive up to roundabout - take (from memory) second
exit up street with shops and banks. Park asap - can use side
streets if no space on main road. Ladies will like the several
bargain (but good quality) - clothing shops and there are several
of the "Euro Shops" - old 100 peseta type - two brand
new with amazing range of goods on display. New supermarket too
- excellent. Also on main street, a very good Chinese Restaurante
- inexpensive and good service and some of the best Chinese food
in the area too. Market lies in back streets - it's very big -
to left - just turn down any street after the Y junction. Hope
that proves useful to some readers!
