Why would I want that if I have permanent residency?

Yeh that's fine Ray!

So far today we've had you Hanoverians taking a pop at the French and the Welsh! Any more nationalities you want to include? The thing is with you lot, you don't like anybody. In fact, you don't even like each other FFS!

@Skippy......make it 11.30 so we don't have to get up so early!

Can you give me a link to this aforementioned "credibility" Dave?

It's an involved bureaucratic process that goes on for years.....and involves passing Language exams and general knowledge of Spain exams. I could piss through the exams (wife couldn't though) but at nearly 70 I can't be arsed with that shit!

Rock concert?

No.....I am a British citizen with a British passport, same as you. I have Permanent Resident status which means I can stay here indefinitely, that is not the same as citizenship. Spain doesn't allow dual citizenship, so I would never give up my UK passport! Because legally I would not be Welsh anymore. I can never do that! Ever! But who knows if Welsh Independence is in our future? That would be my ideal outcome!

Wise words Lionel!

Quite legal to buy a second hand bike with an NIE!

Why don't you get a Spanish bike that you can keep there? @Skippy could find you some hideous third world POS no bother!

See you HERE at 11AM Sunday!

You selling this one now?

So what route there are you talking about? Coming up from the direction of Cantoria?

Are you getting to Oria via Chirivel?

Definitely! I'll figure somewhere interesting to take you!

Thanks Ray.......so I'm more marginally more interesting than staring at your living room walls?

I put a tenner in and it went from half to full. But I've noticed it drops to half a lot quicker than it does to go from half to one bar left.

I thought I'd better put some petrol in the bike cos the last time was in July!

Not really no! And anyway, I can't even see her face!

No......hair is different and he's too blonde! And I never wore shirts with little patterns on them, and then left my shirt tucked out.

Got to keep momentum going.......and they bite every time!

That's the pic that's been doing the rounds for years on FB! Apparently taken around 1972/1973. It completely freaks me out! I used to wear a watch on that arm back then as well........broke it falling off one of the bikes around that time and never wore one again. Hair, clothes, height and build seem to fit.....no idea about the bird though! But they were regularly rotated in that era. Is it me? I just don't know! The wife doesn't think it is.....but she didn't meet me until 10 years later.

Don't look too bad here as long as I can get out early...... I've got some work on tomorrow so it looks like Sunday will be the day! What you lot doing?

She's stuck here now cos the boys have got school places. And Jake's got a better bike than me now.
