5th January, 2019.
Like I said in the video … ?
Can I ask you to remind me to post that letter … !
Can I … ?
If you wouldn’t mind!
~≈§≈~
Just to fill in the details for you … ?
A few weeks ago, I put in for a new provisional driving license: happily funded by my local job centre, as they agree it’s a good form of ID, for those jobs that require one.
So … I happily filled in the form, sent it off with the appropriate postal order, and ID …
And then, once I got back home, realised I hadn’t actually signed the bloody thing … !
So would have wait for the Driver & Vehicle Licensing Agency, the DVLA, the body that issues driving licenses, to send the form back …
Along with a point comment about signing it.
That’s the letter I’ve got to send, today …
Like I say … would you mind reminding me … ?

Remember to post the letter! Oh, the hot chocolate went well (or xocolata, here in Catalonia). It tasted good as well. I even got to do some stirring in a huge pot. I can see the attraction for witches. Mostly, I was transporting presents (people donate toys for the children of families who can’t afford them) and interviewing children (as part of the workshops on offer for the kids). We had the local castellers (human tower… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castell) by our stall, doing activities with children, and I got to interview a couple. Later they did a couple of castells inside as well. Very entertaining.
This afternoon I’ll be participating in the parade, handing (or throwing, depending) candy at the spectators, and picking up presents as well. Here you can see some pics. Each population does it differently (in Barcelona, the three magi usually come by ship. It makes perfect sense, geographically, after all). There is a big parade in the centre of Barcelona, but the districts and neighbourhoods have their own, and I’m participating in the local one (Sants…). Wish me luck!
