    Morning Nick and Taff,

    Marengo Manchego **

    ** other Spanish delicacies are also available. Given that a lot of them end in o, doubtless we haven't seen the last of them, or similar today

    Prospero - Portfolio*

    * - other theories are available

    As for Franco, my Spanish Teacher for A Level (my favourite teacher of all - RIP Ray <rose>) believed that they kept Franco (artificially) alive solely to achieve that symmetry - amazingly the days almost match as well.

    I mentioned it to a Spanish Professor who called it hogwash ......

    I’m with Ray on this theory!

    I will have to contact a Spanish Professor who Ray taught a couple of years after me and seek Derek’s own view. He’s from my home village - and lived just 4 or 5 doors from my (paternal) grandparents.

    Flamenco - Sombrero*

    * - needed in this weather! <laugh>

    Anyway, just booked 11 nights in Costa Adeje, Tenerife. Never been to Tenerife before - the hotel has been recommended to me by 2 people (1 of who has an apartment nearby)

    Going on the 24th
