That is disgusting Dea....wish the chilli had been really hot and she burned her tongue, she wouldnt do it again

I once went into the kitchen at work and someone was wiping underneath their pits with the tea towel :-(

Im very particular in shops with food. If I have a sarni I ask them to make it on a green board where no meat has been...Ive even been known to ask them to wash their hands if Ive seen them pick up meat and then they go to make mine

Awhh, she didn't deserve that Ginns,

She was a very nice friendly person but it was obvious from her speech and her facial features that she was in some way 'educationally subnomal' - I hope that doesn't sound cruel or critical but I am sure you will know what I mean.

I am quite sure that she was doing her best to follow the instructions she had been given but did not understand that she was not doing it in the correct way.

I felt awful reproting it but she should never have been put into that position.

I still wonder whether she lost her job over it - I really hope not !

I am sure there would have been some other role they could have moved her to and sincerely hope that is what happened.

I remember once seeing someone absent mindedly wipe their nose on a tea towel and I was lost for words.


Yes, I will repeat that.


I was lost for words....... :-D

Renes,

Yes, I took another look at your selling agents website and as you said your house was in the "Town Houses" section.

Knowing from the pictures that your house was in a rural area I expected to see it listed in the "Country Houses" section. House/location descriptions are obviously somewhat different in Spain. Have you considered advertising it anywhere yourself or is that not done in Spain?

I also took a look at Fondon on Google Earth but as there is only a very limited "Street View" in the centre of the village I could not see exactly where your house was in relation to the village centre, Plaza Poeta Martin Del Rey. It looks a very quiet sort of place and I imagine that ownership of a car is pretty vital.

My house is the last one before the circle --- the original thressing circle

the village is straight down my Calle and straight up Calle La cruz with runs right thru village

As far as I am aware we only have photos of the ""Bus Stop"" are you sure you are in Guajar Fondon -- not Fondon ---

EDIT
Jonesey --- You are in Fondon Almeria ---plaza Poeta Martin del Rey --- I am in Granada region

Yes a car is needed --although we do have excellent bus service to coast daily

The house is only with local agent at moment -- but will add to others later on --- yes very diff how they sell here ---- think it would mention that my council + water+ sewerage rates are 78 euros a year !!!

Thanks Jonesey

I might have been fiddling with it

Renes, still the same I'm afraid but no worries.

I have now found the correct Fondon on Google Earth. No Street view but I can see Calle De La Cruz.

One thing that I am envious about are your community charges. Mine here in the Midlands total over £2,700 P.A. which is about 3,100 Euros.

I know --- when we left Cambridgeshire ten odd years ago our rates alone on our bungalow were 2000 pounds per year and our water effluence etc was paid separately ---

Thats the advantage of a pueblo life ---

-the coastal overheads are of course is similar to UK ---

but the tranquility is of course priceless

and as someone once said --- when the end of the world comes ---


up here in the mountains -- the baker will still be delivering our bread in the morning !!!

Three men were hiking through a forest when they came upon a large raging, violent river.

Needing to get to the other side, the first man prayed:

'God, please give me the strength to cross the river.'

Poof!!!

God gave him big arms and strong legs and he was able to swim across in about 2 hours having almost drowned twice.

After witnessing that, the second man prayed:

'God, please give me strength and the tools to cross the river.'

Poof!!!

God gave him a rowboat and strong arms and strong legs and he was able to row across in about an hour having almost capsized once.

Seeing what happened to the first two men, the third man prayed:

'God, please give me the strength, the tools and the intelligence to cross the river'

Poof!!!

HE WAS TURNED INTO A WOMAN!!!

She checked the map, hiked one hundred yards upstream and walked across the bridge.
