I'll "fight" you for the right to have featherbum as MY neighbour..................I need all the help I can get with flipping Spanish verbs!! :ohmy:

Whenever I get stuck, I now say "X verb, but en pasado!!" just because I can't remember every conjugation for every regular or irregular verb, in all of the seemingly limitless options there are in the past tense!!
Oh boy, it's just soooooooooooo confusing :unsure:

featherbum; I just wanted to add my assurances that no-one could ever imagine you being nasty to anyone.
You're far too lovely

If you're undecided about exactly where to live, then Extremadura is wonderful you know
Plus the fact, there are hardly any Brits, so your O/H (or hubby as he'll probably be by then) will HAVE to speak Spanish - albeit with a strange dialect!

PS We're going to a wedding tomorrow. Only to the church, but we're looking forward to accompanying the bride through the streets - which we've been told is customary.
She's the daughter of the people who sold us the land that we're (eventually!) going to build our house on.
This morning we've been having coffee and churros with the bride's Mum, and she really made us laugh. She said it would be better if they didn't bother getting married at all; because then there wouldn't have been so much to organise...............and there won't be any paperwork to do if they separate!! :lol:
We know she was only joking, because in the next breath she said she was looking forward to them providing her with a grandchild!
As I said to her - no pressure then!! :D
