Molly Malone's!

We went to Molly Malone's, Irish pub in Carabassi, yesterday evening. On a Thursday, they have a get together of Spanish, British and other residents; chatting in their own language, getting to know new people; predominantly, wanting to learn Spanish. Darrell was determined to go this week; we had been busy for the last two. I decided to sit this one out, instead, spending time with Gavin and David, the owners of this welcoming bar in Gran Alacant.

I have spoken to Gavin before; he is always a great source of inspiration and advice, something I am very grateful for, especially while both Darrell and I are going through 'newbie nerves', living in Spain, as well as jumping through those 'Spanish Hoops', to get where we need to be. It is always good to talk to like minded individuals, who understand the problems, you face on a daily basis.

It was the first time I had met David, who is a thoroughly decent chap. Davis is around about the same age as myself and Darrell, although looks decidedly younger.  I can only guess, that a combination of the Spanish lifestyle, fresh food, warm sun and of course the family genes has worked wonders. David is a likeable personality, friendly and a pleasure to talk with; it is always great to meet new people; you can never have too many fiends in Gran Alacant!

​Back home to Casa Caprice, it was time for Aunty Linda's Scottish Stovies; now one of my secret pleasures!
