Charlie is a star. Everyone loves her – and she loves them. It’s partly due to her poor vision. She doesn’t see everyone, so all of a sudden she’ll see someone new and get’s excited as if they’d just walked in. We saw the lady who first had Pirata. We see her occasionally in there and she’s always pleased to see us (I think). She was in there with her dogs, one of which is 18 years old – which is a very good age.
We also went cheese shopping. We bought two cheeses. We didn’t choose the second best cheese in the world – instead picking one we’d had before. The shelves were groaning with award winning cheeses – I think it was a good year for Extremadura cheese.
And here’s a photo of Horace on my lap – but how did he get there…?? (oh yes, as a complete aside, I was looking at some photos we took in 2005 and I noticed I’m wearing the same fleece top I’m wearing her in this pic. I have worn it every year we’ve been here and as I got it from a charity shop – it was certainly a great investment!)
This is how he got there!
But it doesn’t always go to plan, he got distracted in this attempt…
