Home again

Back from the wilds of Spain - nice, though hot, hotter than here by some 5 degrees and heaven knows it's hot in Esperaza - Lovely to get back to Bob, Lily, Oswald, Jess, Tango and this sleazy beast which has moved in. Gorgeous. Warty Bliggins, I think he's called.

Some bad news... Irish Steve, whom most of the locals know, has been recovered lifeless from the river in Montazels. May he rest in peace.

Other news, also bizarre but (so far) less fatal - a local Mayor (not ours) has been caught in extreme in flagrante and on you tube. Woops. Looks like the national press may pick it up - it's done the local rounds.

I dunno, turn your back for a minute....
