I have had a great day having a mini meet here on the campsite with Wend and OH who drove all the way from Mojacar to come and meet me. 90 min drive for most one way, for Wend the last 300 metres took another hour lol but lovely scenery *sorry Wend*

We had a great day as the sun was shining instead of the forecasted rain, the tapas was on special and the company fantastic.
Wend bought me a beautiful plant which I certainly didn't expect.
My only complaint has to be that OH needed me home to go to work and Wend's OH had to drive back at a sensible hour so the time went far to quickly.

Wend give Spam a huge hug from me to say thankyou.

Mau now for you to have sun is good. I get blazé about it but did think the forecast might be right for once and rain on us. NOT that it would have dampened the day down

Hola! Honey, I'm home. Back in my comfort zone, surrounded by my little vices, lol! Had a great holiday, but there's no place like home, is there.

I have to say that the mini meet in Spain was fab - a very special day and it was such a pleasure to meet Uzzi and, I agree, there just wasn't enough time for all our gassing. She's a great gal and, do you know, she wore high heels specially for me, how bout that?

I hope we can do it again next year - hopefully she's going to hike over the mountains to ours and we'll make it special too for her and OH. :-))
