Ayyyy

I know have I have been particularly slack in my efforts to teach the world how to cuss in Spanish but I have good reason which I will summarise here

  • Week long headaches
  • Stomach ulcer
  • Two vists to the gynaecologist in a week. TWO
  • MORE problems with the apartment including lawyers and surveyors
  • Family visits

So all in all, meeeehhhhhhhh or as they would say here

Dun dun duh


Word of the Week
helping the world cuss in Spanish



¡La Virgen!

The Virgin!

EG: after recounting my woes to a Spanish person they may reply

!Ay la Virgen! Pobrecita

Oh The Virgin, poor little one
Things are now looking up though – more soon to come!

Welcome to Barcelona! Don't know about you, but I hate this seedy, ugly, filthy place. I'm thrilled to be leaving by the end of the summer after two years of struggling to "like" what I never liked.
