Earlier this year(pre covid) I posted about my plans to spend winter in Spain.I had seen a wonderful apartment ,on the beach,in a quiet town.GN's were very supportive and gave some good advice.I signed the contract on March 1st!!
After a lot of soul searching I have gone ahead and honestly believe I am safer here than back home in manchester. I did bring my dog and although he is greatly lacking in conversational skills he is great company.We wake up to the sound of the waves and I watch the sun rising from my window. I love my little apartment and with technology I am able to chat with friends back in U.K. daily.
I had planned on having lots of visits from friends but the virus and quarantine put paid to that so it.s face time only although my son is coming from Poland for a few weeks. My pensioner gap time is proving very different from the original idea but with 70 looming I didnt feel I could delay it. Xmas and my 70th could just be me and my dog!!!
But I am loving it and so glad I took the plunge.

I laughed today and it felt good.
