Funny that, I usually think people who can't use tools or work with their hands as having a disability, I don't think there's a special word for it, I suppose 'Thick' will have to do for them tooWhat with all the spelling mistakes? Now what was it YOU said? oh yes that was it, dyslexia call it what you want but in my day you where just thick!
Still brilliant, well done for sharing this little window on your life
I’ve really enjoyed it . . . and it’s the first time I’ve read it - Well Done Bakes!
This would'nt be at monasterio by any chance would it?it looks like the little truckstop before you get to Seville.
Just seen his Burgos post; unless his pictures are out of order; forget the truckstop;

It might take a bit longer to get back from Gatwick now, hitching would not be an easy option in the current disease ridden country.
And most people are scared of their own shadow
Brilliant read, do you still have the bultaco ,Ive a hankering for one to go with the campervan.
Just skimmed through this whole thread again, a great read and very entertaining

My wife's just gone off to work - night shift in hospital. More very ill Covid patients in hospitals here than ever before. Believe me, it's not their shadows they're scared of.
