COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

Lucky devil! Where are you off to this time?

Costa del Sol probably.
Evening, Lyn.
Oh, and minus two points.
You know why!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Lucky devil! Where are you off to this time?

So you survived the day, then.
Hope the weather behaved itself.

 

[Lyn W]

Thanks.
Another time, in Egypt, I got on a camel that was kneeling to go on a trek to a local oasis.
It refused to get up off it's knees, even though the other dozen or so had all done so.
The Egyptian owners couldn't understand it, as it always behaved for them, but despite gentle cajoling, then sharp words, threats, and eventually physical beatings the camel wouldn't move for nearly an hour, finally arising and heading slowly off in the wrong direction.
I gave up and went back to the hotel.
(on foot).

I bet somewhere there's camels telling their friends how they can't stand Adams too.

On the South coast, in some of the places I visit, English ex pats are often more common than Spaniards.
Many Brits retire there, so many shops, bars, restaurants etc are owned by them.
And tons of holiday makers, especially in summer .
However, i often visit other Spanish cities or rural areas where English is not spoken, so yes, i do speak quite passable Spanish .

You speak Spanish and the Spanish folk pass straight by!

Absolutely poured down all day - we were all soaked to the skin. The paths had turned into streams and we were knee deep in mud for some of it. But spectacular waterfalls and we all had fun! So a very challenging but good day thanks!

But I did have a cheese toasty (toastie?)for tea!

I'm sure of it.
But if I hear about it, i eat them.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Sometimes they do.
Some of them don't like the British very much.

Now you'll go down with a chill.

Oh, okay then, your points are redeemed.

 

[Lyn W]

I'm British and sometimes I don't like the British much either!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I'm British and sometimes I don't like the British much either!

Me, neither.

 

[Lyn W]

Now you'll go down with a chill.

No I won't - you can't catch cold from getting cold and wet unless it affects your immune system and makes you vulnerable to a cold virus. So I'm sure I'll be fine.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

No I won't - you can't catch cold from getting cold and wet unless it affects your immune system and makes you vulnerable to a cold virus. So I'm sure I'll be fine.

Chills can be caught from just being scared, a physical reaction.
So i don't suppose you'll get that either.

 

[Lyn W]

To visit my mother in GEORGIA and do some work on her house and also to repair some fences on my property in South Carolina. (My goats have been getting loose.)
Hopefully get in a little fun as well.

Although you'll be busy it will be nice to see your Mum, and I'm sure you'll enjoy he change of scene too.
Hope you manage to round up your goats too! How many do you have?

 

[Lyn W]

No I don't scare easily either!

 

[Lyn W]

I told the children your 'stick' jokes today to try to keep them smiling

They didn't get them!

Do you have the long bus ride en route to Spain again or helicopter this time!

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Hmmm.
The youth of today.

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Coach.
Too late to get the paperwork sorted for the helicopter.
