Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Wife's birthday today - her mother had a thing for saint's days - my sister-in-law was born on Valentine's day!

Anyway - card done - presents found (I often loose them) and wrapped

grandkid sitting this afternoon followed by meal out in local pub

Oh - and cake sorted for grandkids to 'help' with - not sure of the baby is allowed any but as his parents will be at work I'm sure he won't tell on us!!! (although th e9 year old sister may be a different story!!!)


Happy birthday from me. 🎂

The sun has gone. Replaced by Gray skies, breezy and rain.

Hi Jogger that's a lovely part of spain, we had a great holiday in Montejaque several years ago. Loved the mountains looking out for the Griffon Vultures on our walks. :okay:
We are off to Montejaque in a few weeks, might be our next house purchase, Mrs J likes the sound of the pueblo.
I often sit on the roof terrace and the Griffon Vultures are flying overhead with the odd Bonelli Eagle.
It's a bit off putting when your out for a walk and the vultures are watching or circling. :laugh:

Good luck with the house purchasing Jogger. This is the place we stayed in 2007, shortly after we were back home we found out that the place was up for sale, forget the price but very tempting....

Good evening.
How I would love to see a documentary made on a man in France who is going to walk the country with just a donkey and his dog. He reckons it will take him one year to walk round France. He lives in the South of France on a small holding with his wife.
Shame he is not planning to record his adventure as I think it would be very interesting and that's the sort of thing I enjoy watching.

Very nice, but at the back of my mind I would always be worried about boulders tumbling down off that cliff, Sexy Beast stylee! :whistle:

Morning. Another :cold: start. Think I’ll do the hill walk this morning. Usually warms me up.

Bit of a crap sleep after eating too much then next door neighbour’s dog started barking after midnight. She’s deaf as a post and seemed oblivious of her darling pooch. I even started to get concerned something had happened to her, lady not pooch, so stuck the dressing gown on and wandered round. Her light was on and I could see her through the blinds sitting reading in the living room blissfully unaware of the noise the dog was making so just went back to bed. She must have eventually brought her back inside and it went quiet.
