Hi. We are moving to Turre in March and it may seem a silly question, but are you able to buy squash that you dilute with water in Almería. Was there recently and shopped in a couple of supermarkets but could not find any.

Simple answer is yes, we always get a stock of squash in when our kids and grand kids come over, most of the larger supermarkets sell it

Hi,

We always get the cordial from Iceland/ Overseas Supermarkets. Think it's more a question of taste.

Sandra also thinks other Brit shops would sell.

Coincidentally we have just returned from a 5 month Motor home trip to Scotland and then stayed at UK home for Xmas & New Year. Of the shopping we brought.back were 6 bottles of Aldi cordial.

Have a safe trip and hope you have a great time.

Best Wishes & belated Happy New Year.

Bob and Sandra

Iceland. Super Turre think sell it too, great cheese counter, super chicken, beef counter. Fresh as you could want. Medium sized supermarkets like Consum and Mercadona dont sell it.

Best thing I'd recommend is if youre bringing youre car is to stock up with youre favourite cordial and bring it with.

If you look in the free papers and monthly magazines there are couples who are now offering a shop and bring service whereby you can fill a collapsible box with stuff from the likes of Asda and they bring it/ship it down here, could be worth looking into if you have favourite stuff that you find on special.

The free weekly papers and monthly magazines are available at lots of major outlets.
