Hot and glad, but now with all this rain for the past couple of months, rusty and sad.

Settled in and fitted in a Spanish area, like a hand in a glove,like an egg in an eggcup,like a pig in the proverbial,... despite my grasp of the local lingo being somewhat less than brilliant,... so hardly down to me I might add,.. but down to superb neighbours and lovely surroundings.

Maybe we're not so far apart.I'm about 20km S.W.of Valencia.
I've found the locals around here superb,friendly,polite and always ready to help in any way they can.
Lovely pretty rural area also.
Could not have wished for better.
Feel sad about those who have had negative experiences, when I see just how much the right location has to offer.
