Mark, thank you so much for two updates! You know that you are spoiling us, and that like ruined children we will only ask for more!!
I think this ‘excursion’ to Spain is a v clever way to fill in the months of peace before Granger returns to oversee the drama of Princess Amelia and her pregnancy…..
Greetings to you all from western Spain. 🇪🇸
SMy last haircut in Toni and Guy in London 25 years ago was £60 plus tip. Here at Toni and Guy Valencia my last cut was €30. I shudder to think what they charge in London today!
It’s been rainy. Drizzily to be exact. Rather rare here. In fact there is no complete verb/noun/adjective for drizzle in Spanish except in a roundabout way. Normally, if it rains here it is RAINING!! Yesterday 35°c in mountains for lunch, today 17°.
We had it twice a month in Hall of Residence in Rome. Discretely called ‘boiled meat’ on the menu. Considered by some as a delicacy, I used to go out for a pizza instead.
@MichaelS36 was so so right when he told me to get rid of old oven even though it had started to work agin. Guess what? Yep, died again on a Sunday morning just as I was going to cook roast potatoes…. New one should arrive v soon…. I hope.
Never have I ever drunk a glass of cola. Whoops wrong game! Used to be a big Fanta limón fan but now go with Schweppes limón cero. Strong flavour of lemons and sugar ‘free’.
