We had a lovely visit from an old friend and fellow 90s club kid, Corrine yesterday. Corrine had been spending a week in Torrevieja, and was heading back to Alicante Airport, so decided to pay a visit. I have had some wonderful fun nights with this girl, back home in Southampton and it was a joy to see her; she always makes me laugh. Like all of us, who enjoyed clubbing in the 90s, she has a lifetime of memories of fond and not such fond times; it was great chatting with her.

​Corrine loves cats, spending many happy hours with our two when visiting our home in the UK. She has an immediate  connection with our feline friends; Precious and Lily always enjoyed being around her. Corrine is part of a close network of friends, who are still there; it isn't until you  emigrate, that you realise who the special ones are. If anything, moving away has allowed me to spend far better quality time with those closest. Memories are important at my time of life, visits and keeping a connection alive is invaluable.

We have seen a lot of old friends this year and I have enjoyed welcoming everyone, who has come over to Spain to see us. Reminiscences from a previous life are important, in order to ease gently into Spanish ways. It's always easier, when you see the ones you love.

Don't be strangers!
