I feel a Bah Humbug mood coming on. I have got Sunday off this year, but it is the only day of the weekend I have off.

My computer has been playing up and people still haven't told me what floats they want for the weekend.

May go and see one of the midnight processions in a nearby town.
Sunday will no doubt be another paella with friends at someone's house, overlooking the Med. Up a long windy mountain road so must go careful with the red liquid.
Thank G everything is so cheap compared to the UK.
