Cadaques Help Needed!

Webmaster, BSC Roses — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 16:28:27 +0000

We are a local Surrey Walking Club and are planning a 1 week holiday from 3 or 4

of May 2012 and would like to walk from Collioure in France to Cadaques. I know

that several UK companies offer self guided tours but as we are about 8 to 14

people we would like to stay in just 1 hotel for the week perhaps in Cadaques

and then organise a minibus to take us to the start of the walk in Collioure and

then collect us at the end of the walk each day i.e.:

Day 1 Arrive Collioure – transfer by road to the Gorges de Lavall (240m) and

walk back past Tour de Massane to Collioure.

Day 2 Collioure to Banyuls (15kms)

Day 3 Banyuls to Port Bou

Day 4 Port-Bou to Llanca

Day 5 Llanca to Port de la Selva

Day 6 Port de la Selva to Cadaques

Day 7 Cadaques free day to explore

I don’t know if this is possible however I thought you might have some

suggestions.

I will need to find someone in Cadaques with a minibus who can take us each day

to the start of the walks and collect us in the afternoon at the end.

many thanks

Ministers slam Telefónica plan to cut workforce

Webmaster, BSC Roses — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 11:46:25 +0000

The back-to-back announcements by former state telecoms monopoly Telefónica that it will lay off 5,600 workers, while rewarding its executives with huge bonuses, is likely to incense public opinion.

PC City store opens on same day firm pulled plug on Spanish venture

Webmaster, BSC Roses — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 11:45:24 +0000

Barely half an hour after the latest PC City store opening, in the Galician city of A Coruña, the company announced its decision to end its Spanish operations and leave the market. The decision by the British multinational Dixons Retail to close its 33 stores in Spain will leave 1,224 workers out of a job.
