Another busy day on the Bike!
What a day! we were out for 8am because the Bike needed oil, and I wasn\’t risking a trip into God\’s country without a top up.

Progress…Possibly!
Well, I have finally found out what has been causing the hold-up on drawing up the New Escritura / Deeds, in Spain, the inefficiency of the Gestor in Torvizcon José Manuel, combined with the bloodymindedness of my neighbour Ana. As I have previously said, for some reason all neighbours and former owners, have to giveContinue reading “Progress…Possibly!”
