Am I know?
That's very sweet from you. Just to put it into perspective, how many Spaniards do you know?

Mainly people from holidays.
But one quite well. His Dad had the import rights for Liebherr cranes and he sent him here to learn the ropes and improve his English. Nice chap, Jose.

Nice
Is he still around or came back home?

Went back home after 2 years.
Lives in Madrid but has an estate on the south coast for the summer.
Haven't spokemn to him in about 8 years, one of those people who come and go from your life.

I'm not jealous
So he's got a house in Madrid and another in the South.

Poor...

Very poor.
12 bedroom apartment in Madrid ( I think it's a top floor or something. The whole top floor). The estate is hundreds of hectares with a private beach and jetty, boathouse and clifftop "villa". More like a fucking mansion. Unfortunately he was such a pleasant chap it was hard to hate him for it in the proper English way. He did mention a vineyard in Galicia but I think he was just winding me up by then.

Well, as I don't know him
I can hate him properly.

However, I can see you made a big mistake there. You should have kept in touch and go to visit from time to time.

I would be your best friend and go with you, so you don't get lost in translation. I'm that kind.
