Javea Connect

Información generál

Once upon a time…. there was a bar in Balcon-al-Mar, Javea which was taken over in 2008 by a “rookie” London/Scotland partnership.

And that is where it all started! We would have local customers and holiday-makers visit us who thought we would know everything there is to know about our lovely town. Unfortunately ( as most bar owners will appreciate � we did not, as we very rarely managed to escape from behind the ramp !

Then one day, I had a bright idea ( not that common I will have you know) and as I sat at my computer I thought it may make life easier for the ” Balcon-al-Martians” and Javea inhabitants in general, if they could all meet up in a Facebook cyber -bar and ask each other for advice, or sell and buy their unwanted stuff, see if anyone was going to or coming from the airport, find a babysitter/mechanic etc etc… you get my drift � .
At that moment Javea Connect was born. I introduced about 80 of my customers and friends and published the group. This auspicious occasion was in March 2011 and now, 6 years on, the group membership has grown to almost 14,000.

I have received a tremendous amount of support over the years by a few very good friends without whom the success of the group would not have happened. My sincere thanks go to my loyal and selfless c0-admins, Hannah Williams, Gwenda Robinson, Kenn Walters and my daughter Karlee .

Salud!
