BV interview

Once again I am famous!  😉

Bon Viveur got in touch with me a few weeks ago and asked if I wanted to do an interview for their online magazine and I told them I would be happy to as long as they corrected any grammatical errors before publishing it. Ha. Have to say that being asked to do stuff like this as an “expert in my field” by Spanish publications always makes me feel, I dunno, like I have actually arrived. That I’ve been accepted.

he back

No doubt you all remember this guy. And you also may remember that after about a dozen years or so of being flatmates Peter moved out and got his own place in 1997. So I have had just over four years of living on my own, which I have LOVED, and which I especially appreciated during lockdown. But needs must after almost two years of no income and, since I was cut off from all government aid in June 2020, well, living alone is a luxury I haven’t actually been able to afford for quite some time.

As for Peter, who is now living on his UK pension, he will also save on monthly expenses, and get to live in a bigger and nicer place – WITH CATS – in a neighbourhood that he prefers to where he is now.

Now we just have to see if we can still live together! At least he’s the devil I know.  😉

welcome back blue!

sun's back

After close to two weeks of constant RAIN the sun is back and so is our beautiful blue sky. The good news is that during this time our reservoirs have gone from less than 30% to more than 50% full, which is wonderful. I’ve only gone through one serious drought in Sevilla, with water shortages and restrictions, and now it looks like we are going to be spared that this summer.  🙏🏻
