Fiesta Time Again!

Another year has passed by and the Fiesta started at half six on Tuesday morning. I awoke to the sound of fireworks but managed to dose off again for a few minutes until a brass band started up outside my bedroom window!

I don´t have a problem with most of it but I´m a little bit aggrieved with one of my neighbours this evening. She seems to have started a dog nursery whilst her and her family go out to celebrate. Non-stop barking for the last three hours and another six to go before they all come home.

Oh well, when in Spain so they say and happen we will join in on Saturday night!

Spanishness Day

This is the first time I've come across this Bank Holiday and have no idea what it signifies. I did hear that the King and Queen of Spain have been celebrating and our local Guardia Civil had a bit of a march around the village this afternoon, but that's all I know.

There's a sports centre just down the end of our road which has been taken over for the day. The locals are all outside, singing and dancing along with a very loud band! The later it gets, the louder it becomes.

Wow, either I've gone deaf or it has stopped! I might get some sleep after all!
