Monday is a local holiday - but will the pool be open?

If you haven't got a hangover today, it's okay to have one on Monday. It is a holiday in the entire municipality of Jimena (including San Pablo, Marchenilla, Tesorillo and stops in between) because this weekend is the Feria de San Pablo (See the full programme here) and it is officially assumed that you will be heading there until Sunday, in which case you will need Monday to recover. So, banks, many shops  and all official offices will all be closed. There is still a question about the pool in Jimena, though. As we said in our Interview with the Mayor, negotiations are still going on with the power company about putting the electricity back on there. The latest is that this morning we saw the swimming lesson lists stuck on the door, and they started on Monday. It is still an official mystery as to its opening...
