Thank you for sharing and bringing back memories for me of living in Branston, Lincolnshire and walking along the footpaths there. I definitely needed it this morning as I count down the days until retirement (35!) and can put my escape plan to Spain a reality. And I would have been overjoyed to cross paths with you on a footpath and heard you entertaining the fauna and flora.
Sevilla has been on my radar for a long time. But, with all the turmoil in the world, I might be putting the NLV on pause and do the 90 days first. And I wasn't impressed with the last elections in Andalucia. As always, when US politicians/US media broadcasts to the world, other conservatives, fascists, authoritarians like to follow suit. When I moved to the UK in 2015, I was shocked at how many freaking British men wanted to inform me how much they hated Hilary. lol I have a "friend" from Portsmouth who likes to repost Fox News nastiness. I ignore him because he's a moron. Sadly, too much of that is going around these days. I guess I'll have to make up my mind once I've been there awhile. Sometimes, I'm the moron. When I moved to Virginia in 2009, I was excited to leave Texas because VA had gone purple! What a let down. But, I'm just looking for a bolt hole somewhere that I don't have to deal with Maggats anymore. Plus, being an immigrant, I won't be so invested in the politics. Hope you're enjoying yourself immensely. I might have to visit the UK again to see how I like it sans the British ex-spouse.

Thanks, Cheryl, and 35 days! Congratulations in advance! I envy you. Where are you thinking of going in Spain? Andalucia?
