Good luck with the new job, pleased to hear, sure you will smash it. No use at all worrying about something you can’t do anything about, I try to live by that 😊
Great news on the new job… you’ll be great… when you have a partner that “gets you” as much as you”get them” makes life a lot sweeter. Then you “roll” along together and be happy. Best wishes to you both always ☘️
Been watching ur channel for quite along time but I feel that I must speak out and say thank you so much for speaking out to many people have money and are on the Gravy train they don’t give a dame don’t forget you meet the same people on the up as you do on the way down so respect ur family man ❤🙏🙏🙏this is my wife’s words 🙏🙏🙏
Cheers for the words of wisdom Richard. all the best.
Good luck with your new compere job Rick and I agree about rolling with it. Sometimes easier said than done but I find things often sort themselves out in one way or another x
Thanks Natalie
Interesting vlog again Rick. Was wondering about the house situation, it’ll all work out as you say, its just awful going through it. We’re over in a weeks time, will say hello in GG’s!
Morning Rick, good listen as always. Its our dream to follow you a move to Tenerife, but been looking at availability and prices and your so right, it cant go on like this forever. Hope you and Shelley get your keys asap. Good luck with the new venture at GG`s will defo come down on night when we are over next month.
Sounds great thanks Scott
The Wife and I love watching Shelly and yourself at the gigs. Only on the tube, not seen you live. What a great singer Shelly is 👌👌👌👍.
However, god forbid it happening. If Shelly lost her voice, became ill and singing was out of the equasion. How on earth would you manage! Cannot compare forever, its Not something we see in this day and age. Just curious
.....🤔🤔🤔 .......ps. Good luck with the new house Rick👍
Thanks kevin. We have plans running in the background. Always
Great to hear you are going to GGs, great place with great staff. Hope it all goes well for you
Fingers crossed! Cheers Gary
Agree that rolling with it makes for less stress as it doesn't alter anything but l find that if your constantly hit with family crisis after crisis then your strength gets eroded piece by piece and its very difficult to roll with it, your very sttong mate and like you I stand with a rock next to me, but still things get through and fester, its not easy but I'm pleased that you have learnt to control it and life is good, see you in Hoppys in May. Best wishes to both of you now your grandparents ❤❤
Thanks so much Maurice. Appreciate the comment
Great video Rick and great advise also xx love the view thanks a mill take care xx
Cheers Collette
Hi Rick all the best GG’s . We’ll be seeing you there in April. Good luck 🍻
Thanks!
Enjoyed the video Rick. Think I'm a bit of a còntrol freak but learned over the years that it doesn't work. It's good advice to roll with it if you can't change things but I'd still be concerned regarding the housing situation. Hope it gets sorted quickly for you both. Move in with Meg and Will maybe !
We were in GGs on Wednesday to see you and listen to Shelley. Really enjoyed the couple of hours we spent there . Hope to be there next Wednesday. Best wishes from Marg and Phil from Tamworth!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the support.
It’s the same where I live in the Scottish Highlands so many landlords have moved to Airbnb as they can make in a week what they were getting in a month. People love to visit the highlands
Interesting situation out there. I wonder if there’s been an increase in population too which always adds to price rises. Good video Rick
Not sure Howard. Thanks for the kind words
Good luck in your new compare job, we seen you in Dylans last December as a compare and you were brilliant and im sure that you will smash it Rick xx
Thanks Pam
Succes met je nieuwe baan Rick. Good luck!!
I Was reading in Tenerife News that it's being proposed that some areas will have reduced rent with certain areas deemed distressed . Really hope this happens same problems in Ibiza & Majorca apparently. Good take about wanting to controlling the narrative all the time Rick ! I'm Same lol
Cheers DP thanks for getting involved
A lot of the housing/tourist issues are vloggers mate. A lot of people watch or follow people and think they want to move there. The increase in moving, renting or having a holiday home is massive. That’s why the locals are getting pissed over it. And I can’t blame them. It’s the same situation in the UK. If you can’t live on the island and contribute to the system full time then they shouldn’t be allowed there. Screw this “Swallows” thing. It’s pricing people out of the market. And it’ll get worse before it crashes. 👍🏼
Interesting theory. Thanks Shepherd
@@ricktenerifeI probably could’ve explained it a little better if I’m honest mate.
Can't blame the swallows. They have bought properties and now can't use them due to Brexit rules, half of the apartments sit empty half the year. Awful shame for locals and those swallows still paying lots to service them . Not a swallow yet, but feel their pain x😂😂
@@user-wz2ld6pe7j. Agree . Also like the yet in your comment. Good luck 👌
Good luck with the new job Rick .
Rental Prices gone mental in canaries over the last few years, better off buying a flat mate sooner the better prices are only gonna go up. I moved from Marbella area and bought a house in Torrevieja, Alicante because the houses are less than half the price. Torrevieja is now spains fastest growing city.
I wen to torrevieja when I was 22. Haated the place. I bet it looks Fantastic now lol.
Another missed opportunity
@@ricktenerife Torrevieja is now the fastest growing city in Spain it’s actually really nice there also the orihuela costa cabo Roig La Zenia punta prima is a great area to live lots going on
Think Edinburgh has same problems with air bbs, as tourists coming to tenerife, majorca etc ,people's quest for 1euro pints and cheap food , 1 week abroad we need to remember business es need to earn a fair living for honest trading these working in the hospitality make your holiday, there seems to be plenty land around for new housing.....Great video.
The reason you can “ roll with it “ Rick, is because you have your rock, Shelley. A problem shared is a problem halved.
So true
About 25 years ago i went on holiday to Americos, i became friends with a bar owner and went out a few times to go see him. He said, property here is only going to go half way, we was going to buy a two bed little 2 up 2 down type thing in a village about 10 miles in land from playa de las Americos, it was 17 grand, now that house is 180 grand, I've regretted that ever since, as we didn't buy it,
I can only imagine.
Why didn't you buy it?
@@manuelfg2902 i went back out in November/December time to buy it, and for whatever reason, i think we decided it needed a bit of work, and we'll find another one, and time just went on and we didn't do it
Nice little video. Great words of wisdom😎
Thank you kindly
Good luck with everything Rick things will work out in the end only one thing please don’t take your health for granted look after yourself x
So true Una thanks
Really good to hear someone speaking well of their former employers . A nice touch of class that Rick as if ever I hear people disrespect a former workplace I think it often says more about them than it does the actual employer !
Wise words about the house move I only wish I could let it wash over me given we have our place up for sale and it feels like it’s taking forever!
Good luck in the new job chap !
Thanks so much Michael. Have a great day
It sounds like a nightmare for landlords and new or moving tenants mate. I own a few apartments in Malta - lived here 25 years - high demand but plenty of availability in the rental market. The downside? Malta is a building site. Airbnb is regulated in Malta. Big fines if landlords use it and don't register.
Thanks for the comment Insta
Good luck with the job and hopefully the move 👍
Hi Rick, just aweful stories about the property situation i hope all gets sorted for you soon! U r right with the stress factors when life deals a horrible hand and it never seems to stop you do learn to roll with it, i dont think we have much choice or it would make us ill. I gave nentioned before we have problems with our youngest Son, who is called Kalvin by the way !! Anyway i digress, just congrats to you on your new job so pleased for you, u will smash it ! My saying this time is 'when one door closes ...' haha take care Rick🙏.
Thanks so much Margaret.
Asylum seekers are taking properties in the canaries...32,000 arrived last year
Great news about the job at GGs you’ll smash it mate good luck see yous in June
Cheers
Great news on the GGs job, I’ll probably come in while I’m over in May as I’m staying round the corner 😊
See you soon
Rick totally agree with your comments regarding wearing sunglasses on film but please wear them if your need to your not constantly promoting your brand of sunglasses ❤
You roll on because rolo looked happy enough just count your blessings for just waking up in the morning 👍
You got that right paul. All the best
HII RICK WILL COME AND SEE YOU IN GGS OVER NEXT MONTH. HAD MANY A GOOD NIGHT IN DYLANS WHEN YOU WAS THERE ALL THE BEST
Hi Rik hope u well glad u got a new job all the best ❤
Thanks so much
See you in GG's in June buddy! 🙂 One day we hope to buy a property to move to in Tenerife. We do have a couple of options we are looking into but like you say its crazy at the moment with the prices. For comparison a friend of mine has just bought a beautiful two bed apartment (fully furnished) in Murcia with excellent views, location and a pool. 95,000 euros! And here's the best bit the owner of the property also threw in a four year old Nissan Note with the sale!! Similar property in south of Tenerife is around 300k.
Yeah the prices are ridiculous here at the moment thats for sure
It can be very hard to try and control every thing in life and it can be hard to roll with things keep you chin up Rick something always turns up lol😊😊😊😊😮
So true , we are lucky that we have our own place. I can really understand the canarian people moaning about the housing crisis.
We would be saying the same if we were in the uk.
And you are right , if you rent out it can very difficult to get them out when they say they will squat.
There are very few properties that people can afford now .
And as you say ….. air b n b has caused problems.
Without the proper licensing!
Also a lot of people from the uk have been renting out for years without paying Spanish tax .
This will change soon .
We know of uk residents who have done this for years thinking that they will get away with it.
And then I think that there will be lot more properties for sale and hopefully prices may drop .
Good luck both .
Saw your other half n mercadonna but was too shy to speak .
haha. You should have gone over and said Hi lol. Thanks for commenting
Good attitude on your final words,keep up the positivity.
I try Denise thanks
Best of luck Rick on your new job you will smash it.☺ Wise words😏
Thanks so much
Congratulations things are falling into place for you 🎉
Hopefully. Thanks Lynda
Yes I feel that too❤
bubble wont burst. As long as inflation continues cost will rise and be priced into assets. And inflation never reverses it just slows down. No point in history where appreciating assets decreased unless there was a war.
Interesting view joseph. Never thought it like that. Thanks
I always say about three things in life, they are like a jigsaw, if one piece doesn't fit the rest arnt right.
Ive always been very cool and calm about everything, sometimes too much if you listen to my partner but as i tell my kids. Ive never found a situation when getting stressed out helped. I believe in Karma, good things happen to good people. I have even got a tattoo of a ying yang circle on my arm. So be cool, be calm but be proactive and you will be vloging and moaning about moving house soon.
Defo Moaning lol. Thanks Vinnie
Good luck with it all Rick. It’ll sort itself out. 🥰☀️🥰xxx
Thanks June
Rick did you ever elaborate on Dylans Gate Gate ,goodluck with your new venture djs over soon he was saying the other day..do people buy land &build their Own place.
No Andy. dylans is best left where it is lol. Me and the owner are fine and thats all that matters. Buying land? Not too sure
Control the controlables as they say.
Absolutely
Great news about the job at GGs..and try not to stress about the house xx
Thanks Jackie
Good luck with everything! ❤
Well done on the new job.
Thnaks
Great One Rick ❤.
Thanks Dave
To solve this they will just hike the prices for tourists....MASSIVELY!!
I agree
Good advice Rick. Roll with the punches easier said than done 😉. First morning back in uk. Never called into g gs Would like to know the story with. GED. Seen him cleaning a few mornings in ggs. Last week he’s a great act keep the videos coming all the best
Ged is the owners of GG’s step dad. His misses (the owners mother) cleans the bar in the mornings and he helps her sometimes. No biggy!
He is seriously a great bloke
Cheers for that Rick have a great week 👍🏻
Hopeyour still there in september be nice to meet you
WORRY, the old saying "If it is not going to happen there is no need to worry, and if it happens there is no pointing worrying- you have to take life as it comes, and you will always find SOME solution.
In Ireland, the government is trying to crack down on Airbnb, they are not registered, don't meet standards, and pay no tax like registered accommodation. Don't think there will be a property crash, there will always be demand in Tenerife for property no matter how high it goes. In fact, The Canaries is trying to price out ordinary punters by increasing the prices of everything to cut out the footfall on the Islands. This has happened in Ireland, you never see holidaymakers in Ireland without bulging wallets. It only needs the same number of staff and chefs in a restaurant to serve a €10 meal as to serve a €40 meal, it is a no-brainer. The same is true for hotels, etc.
I live in a holiday spot in Ireland and the locals hardly ever eat out as it is too expensive. I am just surprised that Tenerife isn't worse than it is, watch to see it coming.
Where I live a long-term rental for a 2-bed apartment is €1,500 per month. Everything is relative,.
Thanks so much for your thoughts and input.
I have to agree on all your observations there MM.
Hi Rick, well since your last Vlog, you have got a 5 day a week job, your right , no use in worrying , Can’t have your Hair Falling out , Can we, DOAH ! It will happen when it happens, the move that is, not your Hair 😂 just think you’ve got a lot of great things in your life happening soon. Have a nice weekend . Cheers 🍻
Haha Thanks John
Maybe see you in GG,s staying near by in May 😎😎
Have you considered a campervan as i understand that parking for campers is quiet relaxed on the island?
Believe it or not… yes lol! Its It’s insane to think that
See you in GGs over Easter only staying round the corner at Dinastia
Good luck in ur new job Rick ❤❤
Thanks Linda
Brilliant news on the job front....Will definitely visit GG'S next time I'm over 😀.The government really need to clamp down on illegal holiday rentals... future rick and past rick great idea "funny" 😅
Haha Thanks Andy
Op welke dagen werk je in C C's Rick? We komen de 27e over en willen je graag zien. ❤
Dinsdag Woensdag Donderdag, Zaterdag en Zondag
its crypto bull run season, you could offset any price increase if you bought in early enough. I would have expected A large amount of Brits to have sold there property due to brexit. Alot of money tied up for something you can only use 3 months at a time. Tourist hotspots in the UK have also suffered. City money buys up property and makes a killing as holiday rentals. They dont want long term rentals.
I feel sorry for the locals this ain't gonna end well
Nope it wont
We are out next Thursday and will come in to see you and the acts whoever are on.
Rick you die if you worry and you die if you don’t worry no brainier eh.
Yep whatever will be will be mate hope the housing sorts itself .Balance in life is so important I decided at 60 I would cut down my hours after being at the same company for 40 years then at 62 I cut down to three mornings .im not rich but are comfortable and have time to enjoy all my family .keep the vlogs coming and hopefully see you compare next week
Cheers Steve
