How is this for being brave I could not work out if it was a man or a woman,when he/she was dancing some were saying male then female. As you can see the old man was enjoying it which ever sex it was.
Here are a couple of short videos to show the sort of thing there was.
After the parade finished there was a massive firework display,it was on the beach and went on for one hour, after the ones on the beach were set of they came out from under the sea, with the sprays of water coloured by the light of the fireworks it was a great sight. For the finally a yacht came out of the harbour with fireworks coming from it's deck, then the loudest bangs I have ever heard sounded the end of the display. All this for free we will be back next year to see this again
We set of the next day for Moraira where we were staying for the meet.On the Saturday night we had a social gathering one of our members is a professional musician ( he was with Brian Poole and the Tremolos) and he could still play that guitar and sing, another member played the sax with a band so it was a great night with music from the sixties and plenty jiving. 
The man with the tambourine was celebrating his 80th. birthday so they let him join in with the band, he played it all night with out a stop. the lady in the blue dress is his wife, she has been blind since birth she danced all night despite being 76 years old. They had driven their motor home from the UK to join us.
All was fine till it came to the draw for the raffle, at the last meeting out Brian and I won three of the four bingo games, then won three of the raffle prizes, embarrassing. We sat waiting for the raffle to be drawn oh no we won first prize, I went up hanging my head to get it with shouts of you again all in fun I hope, second ticket you go this time Brian as we won again with a different colour ticket, third prize not ours thank goodness, fourth you guest it ours, by now I want to slide under the table so sent Brian to choose it, a few more were drawn not us I said to Brian then once again out came ours. Put it back and draw again please I said. This was the first prize we got there was a bottle of champers, white rum, red wine, and white wine, dates, box of chocolates, six bars of chocolate and Christmas tree chocolates all in a basket.
Next morning they marked the quiz we always have, and to our embarrassment we won that as well another bottle of wine, so we have plenty drink in for christmas.

You certainly seem to have a very enjoyable life Jeanette! There always seems to be so much going on in Spain, and it looks as though you never have to be bored with nothing to do! I expect the lovely weather helps too:0) This is a really lovely blog. You should be a newspaper reporter, you make everything so interesting! And I love a blog that has a nice lot of photos as well, not to mention your videos!!
Oh what good fortune you have with all the raffles :O)
Great blog, full of lovely photos :O)
Hi Jay
Yet again a lovely blog. You are indeed a jammy b****r.
Do you know that Jeanette plays bingo on the web and has got a name for herself for always winning and taking the jackpot! I have been in her house whilst she does it and the comments that came flying back as soon as she signed in. Oh no not you again, leave some wins for us! not just one but lots wrote to her :O) all very friendly of course. She found 50 Euro note whilst walking to us once and a bit ago her sister and her was behind a man that was dropping money like rain, they caught him up with as fist full of coins and notes to tell him, he had been drinking and said, No you found it, you keep it! Honest.
She will not rub shoulders with me so we may get a bit of her good fortune, she is greedy, I say Greedy!

That was such a lovely blog Jeanette. What great times you have there in Spain. I suppose it helps when you are not only millionaires but have the luck of the Irish as well :0) I can hear you saying 'If only!, but you must agree you couldn't be luckier.
Most people here that bump into strange men in the street get robbed, not showered with money. That looked like so must fun, but I reckon that he-lady was a man. Surely no woman with a figure like that would strip off and dance in the street Ha! Ha! Keep sending your blogs, they are so welcome in cold rainy Sheffield.
