Smile Ruud for the love of Christ, I say. I know he hates pictures like this, which is why I make him do it. It's the small pleasures in life ...

Rudi asking his normal intuitive questions. Who's that? he says. Who do you think it is, I say. Isn't he normally at the front? he looks puzzled. These are Catholics, I tell him, they do what they like.

Yes, I manage to perfectly encapsulate a look that says 'yes here he is, the Englishman abroad, with the fashion sense of a baboon and clothes so strikingly mismatching they offend almost everyone, despite his linen shirts he thinks are so debonair it is laughable'. That's me.

You're never far from history, magic and song in Spain at this time of year. Every day is a festival day, and their traditions seem to have flourished and grown to every generation. Apart from getting pissed and fighting in a car park, we don't have many left in England.

Due to my aversion to people, as well as the places we usually go, we haven't ever stayed in a hotel for our summer holiday. But for a variety of reasons, we are doing for the next 7 days...it is very nice here though.

I think subconsciously I’m already preparing for autumn term as I seem to have ‘Little Donkey’ stuck in my head.

I’ve just checked in for our holiday, but that was my job to do for the day. What am I going to do now? Suppose I could clean my teeth…
