I've been to all sorts of nice places, home and abroad, I've met all manner of good folk, but I'm a child of the Dales, of the hills and streams, the moors and rocks, Yorkshire's in my soul.

Hola Amigos

We´re here in Vera, Andalucia. The weather is reasonable, and the food is great when we can find any.

This part of Spain doesn´t really cater to foreign tourists, especially children. Restaurants often do not open until 8 - 9pm in the evenings, far too late for the kids to eat, but, the food is typically Spanish rather than Spanish/British.

We dined at a place yesterday lunchtime in Almeira where the menu was a fresh fish stall, not noticing the prices on the chalkboard we spent a small fortune on prawns, but the fresh squid and hake that we chose from the many varied fishon on offer was fantastic, sliced and fried in the lightest of batters. (60€ for 12 prawns, then 74€ for the hake, squid, salad, bread, beer & drinks)

Today we had lunch at a local tapas bar, very cheap and wonderful. 25€ for 6 plates of liver stew, marinated vegetables, tuna salad, chorizo, mushrooms in wine, potatoes in olive oil, bean fritata, bread and drinks. I´ve been struggling along in my paltry Spanish, but I´ve learned enough to cope in bars and restaurants, mostly.

We´re having a good time with the Wossers, see you all soon.
