day 4...

 nothing has changed 

Putin still sending his people to die, the Ukranian counterpart  responding, however I think the latter is more just in his defense.

Makes me wonder.

Now the so called Holy Land in on the act, I remind myself everyday just how lucky I am well out of the way. 

Currently the biggest problem I have is attempting to control the garden or should I say jungle, which amazingly is still producing oranges, lemons and the bells of Saint Clemins (humor) 

Anyhoo dear reader, the eyelids are leaden time for  the return ticket ...I hope ...to a peaceful night

goodnight

Tuesday Day 2 Tidings of comfort and joy.

Day number 2 of 2024...so what has changed? Revelations about a scary new missle that Putin can launch from anywhere and it can orbit the earth for ever until some commander orders it to despatch its nuclear lunch box.

I gleaned this from a frightened Méxican broadcasting on YouTube, so it must be true ...must be?

He seemed to be deep into his research, and authentic was his comportamiento...(I use Spanish words when the English escapes) .So be afraid from the sabre rattler from Moscow. 

Words of comfort and joy indeed.

Goodnight, sleep tight.

Se acabo las fiestas

 So, fiestas are over, but no dear readers for this is Spain thus the festival continues until at least the 6th of Jan....or 12th night .....for   you eeeeennnnggglllleeesh, when the children get their presents and its really Christmas once again, So soon? I hear you cry. 

Of course one big difference is the three kings arriving on camels or.....by Fred Olsen Ferry and postmen on scooters lobbing sweets to cheering children. Although this last mentioned practice was I believe played down a little when some small people were injured by chocolate missiles.   

Anyway dear readers on this the first day of 2024 lets hope for peace between the various warring factions...

Too much to ask?

  

some boys from Kilmarnock....

 

All was quiet on new years day

 

End of year

 Only 72.50 a ticket...to get onto Princess  Street in Edinburgh
