Why we should stay in Spain:

Cos it's impossible to sell our houses!

Nah, just jesting, here´s another

Being able to pop down the garden for a lemon in the Gin and tonic

Even though I do not speak the language I love it and would not change a thing, all can I say, good weather and cost of living is low even with the low exchange rate

The smell of jasmine and the sound of crickets as you take a walk with your loved ones on a summer's evening- you can't get better than that

Yeah, nighttime noises.

I like being able to be in a bar at 1 in the morning, with young kids around and not a drunk in sight.

Yeah !!! - And I like the fact that you don't have to queue up 3 deep to the bar to get a drink... the Spanish (in fact most Euro Countries bar UK) just handle a bar so much better.... table service is so much more civilised AND THEY TRUST YOU TO PAY THE BILL !!!

I've got one who does the ironing topless on the balcony


I'll let you decide if that's a reason to stay in Spain or not

The smell of Dame de Noche at night - heaven.

Children playing out and not on computers because of the lousy weather.

Walking on the paseo (prom) without being blown over, even on a windy day.

Being able to open your windows every day, for most of the day.

I could go on and on and it's just reminded me why we came. Sorry I can never stop at one. That reminds me cheap good red wine.

My daughter is outside at the moment.

My windows are open and the sun is shining.

We are going for a walk in 30 mins to the paseo with the dog.

Cheap red wine tonight - definately!!

Dame de Noche - No you got me there. Well the rest is good enough for now and it won't be that long for this too.
