We are two nice 40's guys going to central CdS (Fuen and Benal) at the end of June.

As the information on bars is utterly dismal, we made a list of the best bars in the area (codes are: drink price in euros, name/location, description and comment, resort first letter, try= T, and rating number). They are ranked and in resort order. It is designed to be our opinion for men (and women) behaving badly despite their age.

Please mail if you have any others that are lively and play music (but not yet another one unit sky and chips bar unless it has something very special - like customers!). If you want the original (pdf or html) which has all the correct formatting then drop me a line.
