Really Strange Weather on the Costa Blanca

Imagen
.Here we go with yet another week of podcasts. The weather has been very strange and it would seem to be affecting the electrical equipment in the studio and a massive electric storm on Sunday evening didn't really help.  I was busy early on and my first chat with Don Woods became an evening event. Here was my chat with Don. " The weather has been sunny and dry for the past two weeks so no doubt any day now we will be warned of the risk of a drought....forget the floods over the winter which washed away homes and devastated towns and villages.....if this nice weather continues we will probably have a hose pipe ban....watch this space The football saga has been filling the news with clubs and players licking their lips at the chance to make even more money with a new super league....top of the bill on the news before going out like a damp squib......was this the end of the world?....listening to the news coverage it seemed it was.......I know football is everything to many peop

Hiya ...There´s a new blog and a new podcast. I hope you find them interesting. We spent a lovely day with the little people at Terra Natura yesterday.

I´ve been before but not quite in the same way. We got to the outskirts of Valencia, parked, and came in to the centre on the Metro.The metro is a fantastic network in whatever city one is built and this is no exception tunneling deep into the ground below the city. The trains were jam packed and we had a laugh thinking of the efforts of health and Safety officials. How nobody gets killed is a mystery. We had to change once during this part of the trip and then from the second train we climbed about 200 steps to get back to ground level. The streets were already choc-a-bloc by 10.30 with people heading towards the 2pm Mezclata. This, if you like, is a rather long and loud series of explosions! This is the really big one and the crowds were already showing excitement. The streets were full of various
