Happy Birthday!

Yesterday, the 25th June we had to make an early morning call to the UK to sing Happy Birthday to our grandson Matt who was celebrating his 14th birthday.
Then Peter and I were off out to lunch to join our friend Linda, her husband Bob, or Roberto as we lovingly call him, and their friends Jenny, [...]

What a Lovely Visit!

Once Again Back to the UK and Again to Spain
