‘Tranquilio, tranquilo’. It’s not often Graham needs to be
calmed down by a Spaniard.
Dickie has just been violated.
Why do people travelling in convoy feel the need to park
exactly next to each other? Feeling relaxed while looking out over the expanse
of the Alentejo, Graham remarks ‘that van’s a bit close!’ as it tries to park
between his friend and us. BANG!! I race to the door in a fit of panic and trip
while trying to stop Hugo from dashing out, bashing my ear in the process. Mr
Fluffy jumps out to a chuckling Spanish woman who finds it very amusing that
her husband has reversed into Dickie, luckily just into our bike-rack. The
Spanish chap feigns ignorance, presumably totally deaf to the noise it made
when he hit us. There are numerous pieces of tape holding his van together at
the back, supposedly where he has reversed into other unsuspecting vans.
Luckily all is well and we can remain tranquilo after all.
