Barcelona and Beyond

LL

A brief blog. We have been enjoying Marbella and Valencia these last few weeks while you take a short vacation offshore. The two places Marbella and Valencia are quite different and we have greatly enjoyed both. Also 'popped' into Denia where we have a place. Remember Hans? He's still around.

Now we are in Barcelona for a while to enjoy all the City has to offer. If you recall we have a place here too.

I obviously see all your food posts - why you put them up there baffles me. It's not as though it's cordon bleu stuff or anywhere close to approaching it. If it's designed to impress, then it fails completely. Why in heaven's name would anyone want to see what you eat and drink. You post nothing meaningful which tells me a lot about you.... that I knew already. Still reading the same old author too, I see. Broaden your horizons before it's too late. Whoops! I forgot - you passed on that 11 years ago

 For my part, I post at least one profile shot a day from my studio portfolios to demonstrate something quite different.

It was not difficult at all attracting some beautiful women, after we parted and some of them feature in my photography. I will devote a blog to some of them for your delectation. While I attracted those women, all you could attract was a plum pudding with legs. Those shorts, on him, looked ridiculous.

Sadly you look a lot heavier than when I knew you...quite a lot heavier and your shoulders are  rounding. Dress sense was never your strongest point and now it has veered to the mumsy look. At least it is loose fitting which covers that chunkiness. Looking at the food it doesn't surprise me that you are so much heavier. Quite sad when I remember and can 'see' how you once looked. Not the same woman. Me - I am around the same weight as when you knew me. No real change apart from some added years, wealth and family.

We will either go from here to Italy or to southern France. Haven't made our minds up yet. But you will be back home until September. I know which life I prefer.

I remember that remark when I told you about Ash in late 2006. 'You are lucky to be living in New Hampshire'. It had nothing to do with luck unless you consider meeting Ash was 'luck'. It was all about determination, focus and good judgement ... and wealth.

I'll leave you with this short note for now and the observation that I visited the Canaries three times all over 10 years ago. twice on my own and once with Ash - never again. Our parts of Florida are far, far better.

Ciao baby!
