How lucky I am, and so grateful , for a wonderful caring family……I love them all near and far, today celebrated the famous Day of the Kings in Spain, as you are probably aware from my previous year blogs, the Famous Three Kings of the Orient, arrived in Spain to deliver all the presents last night and today the celebration continues…….it is the Official Spanish Christmas Day, although each year more and more families celebrate Christmas in a big way on the same dates as most of us, 24/25 December with Father Christmas included, and a present is then kept back for the kings to deliver. However if you have misbehaved you may receive a sack of coal !!!

My youngest son invited me for lunch today in Valencia, what a great day, the weather was kind until the return journey, horrific thunder-storm started just as I hit the motorway…
