    I have always felt slightly sorry for Stephen. I identify more with him than with the handsome CJ of dear Carlos H.

    Okay…. All details, plus name, of the club are 100% accurate, even down to the filthy velvet curtain. Thank goodness Tim didn’t exist, but thank God Dave did…… 😏

    Ours have a 3-course luncheon after being on the beach - kibble plus a bit of ham or chicken, a baby carrot and then doggie yoghurt or a biscuit. A formal dinner is served on return from evening stroll - small portion of kibble with a squirt of salmon oil (Omega 3) and half a biscuit. No wine as they are teetotal.

    They were v happy as they got fed an hour earlier. Then, however, they spent the evening haunting me for another meal! Now they are fast asleep and snoring 💤

    Am I alone in hating the hour change this am in Europe? No. 93% of Spanish pop hate it; European Parliament is kind of against it but with 800+ members it’s hard for them to agree on the day of the week, and the science says there is no benefit. And our dogs are sure confused!

    Moving with Gus

    Gary L commented on Robert Hugill's story chapter in Moving with Gus

    ¡Madre mía! I remember those adverts. Marketing genius for the brand, though probably incorrect in today’s world…… And now Gus is in the mix! Lovely chp, Robert, thanks

    Changing Attitudes

    Gary L commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Changing Attitudes

    A great, fun chp. Will-haters must be gnashing their teeth at his good copy here! But, hey, this is a @Mark Arbour story so there must be storms ahead….. Night night and sweet dreams ( if my neighbors’ kiddy stops crying 😭)

    Madrid

    Gary L commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Madrid

    My school motto was also in Latin: “Olim meminisse juvabit”. (Rough translation, one day you will remember and rejoice) So true, looking back at a wonderful state school with no bullying, great success at getting us into top universities, etc. It is hopefully true of past good relationships and perfect for Granger thinking of Travers.

    I would have loved to have travelled to Canada when younger but the cold 🥶 Here balcony bulbs are out, our baby plum tree is covered in flowers (I thought it had died), and it reached 25°C/ mid 70s today. After the deluge of rain in Galicia it’s nice to be home…. Until temperatures reach 30°C+ in a couple of months. Then rain would be v welcome.

    Gary L commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Madrid

    What a treat to come home to! And Calatayud? Scorching hot nothingness in the middle of nowhere in the summer months, and a tad cold in winter. I almost feel sorry for her ladyship…. fun but also disturbing chp. What a mess Cardona has made.

    Adams vs. Lowell

    Gary L commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Adams vs. Lowell

    A great feel good chp but also showing Travis as he matures. V enjoyable, indeed. Thank you, Mark. ps On a slightly different route from El Ferrol to Madrid than Granger in another tale. The A6 motorway supposedly didn’t exist back then, however the road surface seemed to be 18th century as we bounced around the potholes…

    Does Jeremy travel overseas to redo apartments? Mine needs a makeover!

    You want yoyo, @Kitt? Today a glorious 23°C (low 70s F) in Galicia, photos in my Instagram; tomorrow we go 300 m south with max 8°C (too cold to think in °F!) at 4,000ft on plateau N of Madrid, then 250 miles east to the balmy Mediterranean. Me thinks the dogs will be confused. I have my Irish sweater ready for tomorrow!

    Solid recommendation from me, too. My only complaint is that my glowing comment from yesterday didn’t get uploaded!

    Chapter 6

    Gary L commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in Chapter 6

    One of mine, too but the tree spirit story moved me to grieve for the non- human world around us. In @Mikiesboy we have one of the current stars of GA. Love you both 😚
