Spanish Flying Clubs

Hi Folks
Like many people , I have been thinking long term about retiring to Spain, or at least spending a good amount of time there. Armed hopefully with a JAR PPL , it should be possible to join a Spanish Club and fly in Spain. But some questions arise:
1) Do all spanish flying folk have to learn Engish as part of their version of the JAR PPL?
2) If yes to (1), does that mean that Engish is the language for ATC at flying club level?
3) Under JAR rules can the PPL be kept current with the same flying hours as the UK?
4) Last but not least, how do hourl costs compare with the UK?

I was looking at Murcia as a possible location so if any one has any experience of that area, 'twould be most helpful
Regs To all
