Post by Jose A »

Evening all,

The train had not started running when we walked down to the village yesterday. Also, last season it was parking at the end of Rua Barranco, and not in the square, so it may not be as visible on the web cam.

:D I saw the train today Jose. Dont know if its been bought or if your renting it. Didnt see big oversized red shoes on driver :lol:

According to mother (yours that is) that means the holiday seasons started, but there dos'nt seem that many people around.

I wonder how long it will take before s frustrated local pours sugar in the train's petrol tank this year. :lol: :lol:

Now don't you look at me like that!
I have grown quite fond of the train ever since I spent the route to Centeanes flirting with two lovely ladies sitting in the back row. :P
Only the drivers behind me were even more annoyed as they had to overtake me and the train. :lol: :wink:

Okay G, we get the picture. You are bored :cry:
It must be so awful for you looking out of your office window at the sunshine, knowing that in approx an hour or so you will be shutting up shop and taking a long lingering lunch break, possibly followed by a bit of a siesta. I'm mowing the garden before starting the ironing.

So indulge us G, where are you going for lunch?, what do you fancy eating and what are your plans for the rest of the day and evening?
It will cheer all of us up in the UK, honest.
