I love the marble-checker floors (had it in the lobby of the first law firm I opened in NY). Quite a subject this turned out to be, we should segregate it under the heading: “house and garden” or “architectural digest”.
Estevan, that is not a car, that is a proper automobile !!
RE: Estebanana, Jason at gj (in reply to Escribano)
Hey...anyone remember this little British modern Classic from "The Prisoner"? ("I am a Flamenco guitarist...I am not a number!" )
I think gj would be much more stylish driving Ailsa around London in this... (Especially he in his Bowler hat and her in her knee length, leather stilletto-heeled boots and mini skirt!)
cheers,
Ron

Oh Simon, like, DUHHHH!
It's a 1932 Alfa-Romeo 6c; we're talking about our gj here, not Patrick MacNee. It's all been translated.

Ron: The Lotus 7 is certainly fun, but it doesn't correspond to the level of elegance we're accustomed to from our hero. I mean, which one goes with the room, the Lotus or the Alfa? Really.

IMO it's the Lotus 7 without a doubt.
The juxtaposition shows style rather than mere staid display of wealth and position IMO.
I like this thread that combines Inspiring Spaces, Action Autos, friends, wine and beer, with music all around.
That sums it all up handsomely, Estevan, a thread to celebrate the unexpected friendships one could forge on this Forum. As Jason said “flamenco chooses its victims” … there is our bond and camaraderie.

So why no sound clip?
I suppose it is true "you can take the boy out of the country, not the country out of the boy".
You are absolutely right Pgh, I too regret not having preserved some of Jason's elaborate performance along with some very sweet falsetas Estebana played to check my guitars. Always comforting to see a luthier play (and sound) well on a flamenca. At the same time, recording devices and video camera could have compromised the spontaneity of the moment.

As well as Flamenco, it is a strong color that can bring up a bunch of conflicting emotions. Red is love, pain, passion. It can also be violent. Red is me I think lol.
This forum must be the only place in the world where a naked Conde drapped languidly over the body of a lamboughini is more of an eyeful than a leggy model.
Ok next juerga in Cali my friend and I will roll in with his lambo and conde:
Sweet, and I'll roll in with my warmed up Mustang and most famous Anders' blanca I would like the Mustang redone in matt black and black hood (just thinking about it).
