London calling...

Hello,
I'm a writer and publisher who lives in Clapham, south London and in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
I regularly blog about life in London and in Jerez, which includes flamenco, of course, on my web-site www.thestorybazaar.com and have just returned from the wonderful Festival de Jerez ( so lots of blogs about performances and the Festival in general, see below ).
I am not a musician - I wish that I was - though I can step my way through a traditional Sevillana ( necessary for any sort of participation in fiestas in Jerez ). Looking forward to joining in discussions.

Julie

Welcome to the foro, from someone who hasn't been here all that long either. Sounds like you've got it made, going back and forth from London to Jerez! Very nice.
Look forward to seeing you in the threads.
Cheers,

Welcome Julie! I was in Jerez for the first time during the first four days of this year's Festival, wonderful place!

Welcome aboard. I'm pretty jealous, I'd love to bounce back and forth between London and Jerez!

Thank you, all.

Just back from the Festival myself - best ever this year. Who did you see FredGuitarraOle? Maybe I'll start a thread on it ( if there isn't one already ).

I am very VERY lucky, I know. I love both places.

Julie
