I have been round to Tina's and she was writing a new story about the vet but it would not post, don't know what is wrong with her blog.
I changed it to english for her so she could understand the writing on the top, so she may now be able to post one lets hope so.

We had a new washer delivered yesterday, it was fitted in by two spanish delivery men.
Then the problems started, while I was signing the paper work with one of them, Brian was being shown how to work the machine BIG MISTAKE in my broken spanish I explained he won't remember what to do he never does the washing.
They thought this a big joke but did not show me what to do just went out laughing.
The washer was delivered at 7 pm at 8 pm we are still trying to do a wash.What did they show you to do I ask, just press the button was the reply. there are 6 buttons Brian which one, that one I think was the reply. Go get the book and read it please Brian. Well as you might know it is all in spanish.
We translated the best we could and finally got a wash done at 8-50 pm.
we have to set the machine for the drying conditions, a picture of a cloud means more spin, a sun less spin because it is sunny outside and does not need as much, a leaf means it is windy outside so less spin again, and what the fourth picture is we have to work out yet.
No wonder Brian could not take it all in, but I do think he could of remembered how to switch it on right, we must of looked right nanas pushing a button then waching for it to start, then nothing. If we haveto call them out to explain how to get it going I am going to Tina's and you can see to it.

This is the cricket that has been living on our garden wall here in Spain .He has been with us a few days now, always arround the same area, we have called him Jose.

I love to hear the crickets when we take our dog Tiny out for her walk at night, they are so loud but when you get near to the garden they are in they go silent, but walk a few paces away from then and away they go again calling to each other.

One once jumped on to me and frightened me to death, I did'nt love that one, to near for comfort.
