Saludos dedse Salamanca!

Hello! Sorry about the HUGE gap between posts. I've just moved to Spain where I'll spend the next few months struggling to improve my Spanish before moving on to Germany to do the same. Here's a picture of where I am (taken shortly before my camera ran out of battery and the first of many thunderstorms started).
It's a very pretty city with some stunning architecture (and a wool shop :) ) but unfortunately the weather's been a tad crazy. On saturday I froze in the morning, got burnt at midday, got rained on 10 minutes later and then at about 6 a hailstorm started with hail the size of ping pong balls. As you can imagine with so much excitement and confusion not much has happened on the making things front.




These 10 little hats were posted off to Innocent for the smoothies to wear to raise money for Age Concern.



Two more pigeons flew the nest before I went away. Mr Pigeon 004 is enjoying life in California whilst Mr Pigeon 006 (pictured sunning himself in a tree) is no doubt pecking at churros at his new home in Madrid.

The name's Pigeon........Mr.Pigeon (i.e. Mr.P 007) is currently sitting unstuffed in my suitcase because I still haven't found a shop that sells toy stuffing in Salamanca.

Hasta luego!
