Default Best and worst??

Hi guys,

I've been over here a couple of months now and getting used to things quite nicely, I've been reading through all the posts and wanted to ask everyone a nosy question if thats ok??

How long have you lived over here, and what are the best and worst bits about living in Spain??

Cheers

True of course, but so you don't fear no-one's going to answer, I'd say the easy living for my 7yo & the sky (well usually, that is) for me. Worst ... language/inability to communicate as freely as in English, and that's obviously down to no-one but me although I do believe age plays a part! Am (still just about) blonde too.....
I think OH might say the same, but he's in a metal tube with Stelios at the moment!...

One of my best moments in Spain was sitting on the terrace of Penelopes cafeteria in Albir on a sunny afternoon. I had just walked past the Spanish newsagents and found to my astonishment that I could buy a current copy of the London Evening Standard. This was years ago.

Penelopes terrace was packed with people from all over, Dutch, German, English, Spanish and I sat in the middle of them reading my favourite newspaper. I’ve never forgotten that half-hour of bliss. I did the crossword in record time.
