The Gaudi touch

Today we received this present , a ceramic bull typical of Segovia from our young Spanish friend Rodrigo who comes from a small town outside this World Heritage city.

He has just graduated from a Scottish university and he is in no hurry to return to his homeland.

He tells us the unemployment figures in Spain are horrendous-25 per cent.

A new store opened recently in Segovia and they received 20,000 applications for a 100 jobs in a few hours and the web site crashed.
