Monday was a Bank Holiday, Dia de la Hispanidad or something like that. This involved a day off for most people and military processions in Madrid which even the Conservative leader of the opposition Mariano Rajoy admitted was a pain in the arse.
I avoided military processions and went with my daughter for a walk in the park which these days amounts to a far truer celebration of the Hispanidad than anywhere else.
The photo was taken on the see-saw amongst the pine trees and behind is the Casa de los Teletubbies where we sometimes have coffee and Kinder eggs. Today we collected conkers in the murky shadow of a horse chestnut tree. We collected them for no particular reasons as nobody plays conkers around here although I’m told that some people feed them to their pigs.
