Hello Readers

Well I’m back in the driving seat with my son returned safely to the UK following a great weekend of celebrating. It’s the summer holidays!! The towns are certainly alive and buzzing and should continue to do so for the next few weeks.

As you are aware Fuertenews tries to highlight problems and difficulties on the island in order to help and understand local infer structure. One of our visitors had an unfortunate experience this week. The local buses are equipped to take wheelchairs, with special loading facilities and an area for the wheelchair. However please be aware that there are no fixtures to keep the chair stable once on board, it relies on the brakes of the chair itself. In this instance when the driver braked suddenly the chair tipped over. Fortunately the outcome was not of too serious a nature this time. So please beware when travelling on public transport with a chair that it needs to be manually supported.

The 25th wind and kite surfing competitions are running at present, with favourable weather conditions.
Keep safe in the sun.

Penny
