The Locals


We’ve met some of the neighbours now. On the first night, I introduced us to the lady down the hill, but on day one, my Spanish was very limited! I’m not even certain that she understood that this was now our permanent home. The lady at the other end of the garden however, had the benefit of a week of listening to Spanish, so I was able to introduce us, explain that we now lived here permanently, and had children in the UK. I must admit that a lot of that was her leading, and me following about 2 sentences behind, with ‘yes’ and ‘no’ where it fitted!

Several of the locals have made themselves at home, but some are certainly more scary than others!
