  1. Remembering Pili.

    by on 09-07-2010 at 01:46 PM
    The following is my response to a question I wrote on another forum - when somebody was discussing the Gitano community in Spain and the general negative attitude towards it. We are now approaching the 2nd anniversary of Pili's death and it's at this time especially, when the children are on holidays from school and I have my family around me that we take some time and think of Pili's family, how they are missing her dreadfully and the hole that she has left in all our lives. I look at my daughter ...

  2. How difficult it is to scrap a car in Spain

    by on 29-06-2010 at 09:24 AM
    Hi

I cant find any paperwork relating to the car but just need it scrapped as its really no good to anyone. I live in London so am finding it difficult to sort out. I would be grateful anyone can help in any way. The car is ...

  5. so the language school just rang

    by on 02-10-2008 at 10:49 AM
    the 'full time' secretary just rang me - apologising that there is nothing for me - but she's now looking for another job cos she thinks the school will close soon

    seems the boss is 5 months preggers & the sec thinks she will give up work - we didn't even know there was a guy around - and total lack of students means the place is going down the pan anyway

    seems I made the right decision to expand on my own when I did

    I suppose in a way it's good that ...
