Off we go again ... feet have been itching for a while, though life in Stanhope has been perfectly fine, still something wanted to happen ... considered rolling the dice to see what fell, then, in the end, the thing emerged ...
... A friend of a friend's mother has a house in Andalusia which is hard to sell and needs protecting from folks helping themselves to the contents and the rather nice marble ... A kind sun-lover is needed ... do I know anyone who might live there for a while, to take care of it?
... after a meeting over coffee in Ciao Ciao in Durham with the daughter and a Skype call with mother and daughter, it was agreed ... flight booked to Malaga on April 17th ... notice given on cottage, surplus stuff seeking new homes ... all unfolding simply as these things sometimes do ...
Meanwhile it is a gorgeous Good Friday in Stanhope ... weather forecast to revert to more typical British Bank Holiday from tomorrow ...
In a synchronicity, the new adventure begins almost a year to the day since returning from Spain ... a good time to get used to the rather hot weather in Andalusia. ...
So, the cottage wants a tenant or owner, the library wants some readers and this feckless, reckless wanderer is off for a walk ...
