Rossco and James are too good friends of mine from my days back living in England. We had all kept in very good contact over the years. Almost 2 years ago I received news that shortly after James had begun a relationship with this cute English doll, named Rose, Rose's Uncle had asked them to relocate to Spain to oversee the property of an 18th Century, 12 roomed, three story, Chateau type Mansion, as it was restored and referbished. The property was extremely exclusive. Located down a dirt road path and about a 20 min walk from the small village of Besalu. They had decided to take up the job offer and had been living in this lush rural area ever since.

Months prior to our arrival they had invited Ross and me to come stay in their comfortable home in sunny Spain and I can't tell you how incredibly happy I was to be there. We spent most of our time either watching "Little Britian" or drinking tea while playing Thai Poker. But we did manage to get down to Fegaress for the Dali Museam, we spent a day horseback riding in the countryside and you could say I learned how to ski for the first time, though I don't think I looked to great out there. All in all, it was really good to be with them and it gave me a much needed break from the cold and an opportunity to converse with english speaking people my age.
