Pretty soon I’ll have been here for exactly one week. In that time I’ve secured a one bedroom apartment for the whole of September & October. Normally I’m guilty of photographing everything but I was so delighted & excited I forgot.
I’ve also gone native ex-pat as my lovely hosts, Ma & Pa, cooked me an amazing cottage pie last night. When on holiday I always eat local food & so I have to remind myself that I’m here to live & work so the rules have changed. I’ve even had Chinese food twice!
Other useful information: potatoes from Mercadona are rubbish but OK from EuroSpar. Cornflakes used to be cheaper at Hiperdino but now there’s only a few cents difference wherever you go. Actually all I’m really bothered about is where to get decent wheat-free sausage (that’s a post for another time).
Today’s mission, should I choose to be bothered, is to find a bar showing the Fulham game. It’s on at the same time as F1 & countless other football matches so I’m hoping someone will take pity on me. Wish me luck!
