Molly, NOW you show me the nifty little camping shower. This time last year, priceless. Then, I was at a campsite with communal showers, and I mean communal. 5 showerheads in a row, NO DIVIDERS.
I did see you'd said you wanted to start working again to fund your travels, that's what made me think of it
A friend's husband does it in the UK, including taking the occasional high-spec car across here to Europe, and although he crams in as many trips as he can (rather than enjoying the drive and taking a little extra time) he does earn a surprising amount of dosh.
Viking, the test is a pain in the butt, right? But back where I grew up cars only ever went through a roadworthy test when they were sold, and my mother drove (and neglected) a Datsun SSS for 18 years which was a deathtrap held together by rust at the end of its days. She and the car were a lethal combination. So although I don't like having to do the tests I'm glad everyone else has to
I thought you meant a future when cars drive themselves - I get the impression you love driving and will hate a self-driven car, though
Not joking, have you ever thought to getting a job moving rental cars all over the country? Apparently there is always a shortage of reliable drivers so it isn't badly paid, either. Travel and earn at the same time, can't be all bad -
Hey Map! I did wonder if it was Don Quixote, it has that slightly mad look, but you are nearer La Mancha country than I am - however I looked it up after your comment and apparently Orgiva has an impressive collection of Cervantes work so that would explain it.
I LOVE water misting systems! In Granada most pavement cafes have them, pure absolute bliss in July and August. My town got the street misting systems temporarily for their fiesta (a week only) and I was really sorry when they were taken down again. I'm still wondering whether it would be worth building one into the terrace here but my problem is always champagne dreams, beer income, twenty places to spend every euro and when I can mist myself from a bottle I keep in the fridge, it is obviously something that will have to wait until I win the lottery
Hey Daniela, the Alpujarras are foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range in Andalusia, the nearest city you would know is either Granada or Motril.
My own town - or village, I suppose you would say - doesn't have an ITV station, or a notary, so to me Orgiva seems quite a metropolis
Why not watch Trump videos? There are thousands of him talking, he went to the best schools in America, and you can practice that way.
He uses a fairly small number of words a great many times, on the whole you couldn't have a better example to model yourself on. Pronouncing words like 'anonymous' can come later.
In theory before gardening you can dig your nails into a jar of vaseline and stuff them with a protective squidge. That's the theory.
I understood your point to be not that people occasionally have grimy nails because of what they're doing, but that they would go out on a date with grimy nails, no?
And if we have to present a spell or cure to be allowed to join the coven, I have a rather spectacular little potion for coven members only - picked it up during research for a book. Not to be used lightly, as the consequences are lasting
Sorry Harb - for a man who has obviously avoided witches all his life from the Wizard through to a little-known series about a school called Hogwarts, this must be a bit of a shock to you.
Molly if you have done this and know of what you speak, you can be in charge of fire-building. But I shall still dance in flipflops until I'm sure sure.
And big pharma only reject what they can't use - echinacea is now packaged in blister packs of 6 pills costing a fortune, and covered with warnings on overdosage, for one
Fair bit of drama happening on here, I am amusing myself commenting on every blog that is not a slanging match
I wouldn't want the truck on my property but it fitted surprisingly well into the setting where you found it - perhaps in the same way that a weed is only a flower in the wrong place?
Harb, I don't approve Trump's tactics but I can recognize his frustration.
And Z, Facebook is as bad, try finding your way back to a post you wanted to read again - you see what FB decides you see. Which is usually ad posts from people you don't follow or the same boring post which has topped your page for 3 days in a row. I have to go to people's pages to see what they've been up to since FB has its own priorities, which do not include keeping me updated on the people I have listed as close friends.
I do think least attractive of all is nails bitten so far down the finger bulges above them. And the least attractive thing a human being can do in public is feast on their nails. Just worse than surreptitious nose-picking
