Yo, Kate! Well, my first post here was a bust--or, rather, a nothing. Hit the wrong blasted key. Anyhow, after your first post about Peña de Socios I was about to whine about not seeing it when we last met you and Harold in Granada. Then I saw your second message. Too bloody bad. What's the neighborhood like these days? Alicia was in Spain for two months recently, but I had to stay home and work on the blasted book (9th edition now, if one could believe it). But we hope to make it a long trip next year. Plan to visit us in Rota one of these times . . . Estela can vouch for the fact that we don't do serious damage to visitors. And finally: Don(n) Pohren made the difference between ignorance and semi-literacy for a lot of us--practically the whole generation of us who did NOT get to Morón (or anywhere else) during the Good Old Days. And if Peña d Socios can't quite keep up the tradition these days, there is certainly some other place, waiting to be discovered by the likes of us, that can. (I find some gooood stuff sometimes in Sanlúcar, and it's closer to home than Granada!) Fondest regards.... Richard "Ricardito"
