Well look what I saw in our village ..........

Little Andelucian village halfway up a mountain and a lovely, mint Spanish 827 SLI parked outside our one and only restaurant.

Had a brief Spanglish chat with the elderly owner, told him about my Coupe, offered him a cheeky 1000 Euros for his car which he smilingly declined.

You can see the slightly bemused Spaniards sat inside.

... bemused! what a nice word. Had to look for it in my dictionary. Well, what do you expected? Not sure in that part of Spain but were i was born and raised, people do not talk to each other unless you are formally introduced or in a emergency need... a bit more relaxed in Seville probably even more in Almería

Doubful for POL sadly, in UK now buying a rental property which is delaying our return until very early April, back in June for the UK summer :lol: for national RSR in Burton, East Kirkby in July, BLMC August, Saltaire in September before return early October for winter.

It’s not the photo , it’s been diabolical, rain, sleet, snow, wind and more rain

Bemused is a great word Eduardo, cross between bewildered and amused, summed it up accurately I think, very friendly lot over in Enix, Almeria, happy to chat if you’re seen to be making the effort to integrate and speak the language, very relaxed environment away from city life, we still intend to call in on you by prior arrangement on our next route to Portugal whilst travelling by Seville and see your fleet.

Looking forward to see you around here. Please remember i use to spend some weekends in Puerto de la Duquesa. This is half way between Almeria and Seville and close to Gibraltar. It's crowded of Britts! this is one of the reasons why, i purchased an appartment there. Well, just in case you can come over. I'll be there for Easter.
