An anniversary and a birthday

September 4, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

I forgot to tell you! 21st was our wedding anniversary and 25th was my birthday. Oh wait, was it August? How time flies when going out may kill you.Since lockdown it´s like we´ve all been programmed to recede, even now with some things open, nobody`s going out unless necessary. On Sunday we felt beholden to…… Continue reading An anniversary and a birthday

Charlie the cactus

September 1, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

In these difficult times, it´s important to have something to do. So I planted a cactus in a pot and sat it on the drive because it was an exciting experiment. Apparently it´s a good thing to keep exciting experiments going on when you can´t go anywhere, I highly recommend the therapeutic value involved whatever…… Continue reading Charlie the cactus

Up on the rooftop

August 17, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

Sat in the corner shady bit which appears at this time of day on the roof terrace, only the sound of cicadas to be heard. Just avoid the sunny side at all costs! No need for a BBQ, you could cook a feast on the tiles for a crowd up here, oops, I mean no…… Continue reading Up on the rooftop

Hey it´s my birthday month

August 3, 2020August 3, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

I´ve been thinking of all the places we can go to celebrate. It´s a good idea to prepare in advance, gives you something to do, and proves you´re still sane.During these troubled times, it would be extra exciting if instead of a birthday, (just one single day) we can do a “birthmonth.” Remember, anything´s not…… Continue reading Hey it´s my birthday month

A blog post from the toilet

July 28, 2020July 28, 2020 heathersunflower2 Comments

Makes me wonder if anyone has ever composed a blog post title like that before. Ah well, there´s a first time for everything.Note, for anyone of a delicate disposition please do not continue reading any further.   Over the past couple of days I´ve become best friends with the toilet bowl. A brief, (excuse pun) amount…… Continue reading A blog post from the toilet

This is weird

June 23, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

We´ve only been in “Phase 3” (eased restrictions) for 10 years 2weeks tops. But Spain “opened up” yesterday, so what happened to Phase 4? I mean we were supposed to get there first, perhaps it got deleted. No wait, it did.Us natives think it´s too soon, but to be fair the Spanish government have set…… Continue reading This is weird

A change of heart, mind and soul

June 20, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

A few months ago I wrote about us moving house, somewhere further inland. What you get for your money is astonishing. Just 180,000 euros for a big villa with swimming pool, situated at the foot of the mountains. Most of the ones we liked were in a place called Fortuna. So we went there and…… Continue reading A change of heart, mind and soul

Oh I see

June 16, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

Opticians are open now, so sometime last week I walked in with my dead pair of jigsaw glasses. Don´t ask me what day it was, or even which time zone we´re in.First of all, the place was devoid of humans except the little guy stood at the desk, he was pretending to do something important…… Continue reading Oh I see

Illegal but legal

June 6, 2020 heathersunflowerLeave a comment

Some of the things not happening here used to be legal necessities in the olden times, but life has changed. Spain loves it´s paperwork, believe me, you can´t go to the toilet for a poo without filling in a form of declaration.Moving on (excuse puny pun) to more important things, car tax has flown out…… Continue reading Illegal but legal

During the past however many months of quarantine we´re at, farts have become a major source of humour within this household. We´ve even got a competition going on, including names for each variety. From 10 up to 1 ? Here´s what we´ve shared and learned:Pip farts are fairly quiet and last for about a second,…… Continue reading About Farts

Took early retirement, and moved from Boring Britain to Sunny Spain in 2014. Packed my sense of humour in my suitcase and haven't looked back since. LIVE LAUGH LOVE!
