Hi,

Going to Fuerteventura next week, and really need decent coverage of the football on tv.
Does anyone know if the Canaries get the same channels as mainland Spain?

Cheers.
Pause Switch to Standard View TV coverage in the Canaries

Valencia was on tonight but I don't know the details of the matches just skip though the tv when the spanish are playing. Guess they would all be on pay ie Canal. They'll show them in bars.

FAFH, lol. I would rather stay at home and work but the 'ball and chain' is making me go!

Flatliner, I have to trade from the hotel, so I'm going to look for one that has as many subscription channels as possible (though, the Real Madrid game, eg. is on TVE).

What about the security issues of trading on BF using wireless connections in public areas of hotels and bars ?
Didn't I read on here that they can be very dangerous if not approached properly ?
Report Contrarian February 16, 2011 9:17 PM GMT
Yeah, I would only use a cable. I usually end up having to select hotels quite carefully on the basis of their internet capabilities.

With the money you make on here C you should be able to buy the hotel you stay in.

And there I was using the hotel's wireless internet in Costa Rica and Nicaragua Shocked

What was the connection like in those countries Investor?

I'd be scared of putting any money down in case the internet went off. Or the electricity.

Internet was fine, except in the rainforest!
