Flirt

 


Met my friend Colin for lunch and a much needed laugh. I told him how much I over reacted to our new male Iberian vet when Mary had her ears reviewed and he giggled loudly when I admitted I simpered like a schoolboy when the vet told me that Roger ( who had come along for ballast) was a fine specimen of  terrier. To be honest I would have smiled and laughed if the vet had read out the first quarter of the local telephone directory, those deep Spanish tones.
Like a moist Antonio Bandares on toast
Colin, reminded me that I wasn’t too old to flirt even though it was somewhat unsavoury to laugh at absolutely everything the object of my affection had said 
Note to self next time tone it down 

On another Spanish note, this is the final piece I enjoyed at the Madrid concert this year. The look of intensity in the eyes of the dancer could be seen and felt by me in the one of the back rows of the auditorium . 
Amazing


I suddenly want to be back in Madrid

  4. Oh, you are never too old to flirt. A woman past 95 years flirted with my husband so expertly that she might have taken me out of the picture if she had had the stamina. He preened for days!

    2. I concur Ms. Katie; in fact it is more fun as one ages as rejections are no longer crushing.

  10. Being the shallow old queen I am, I wondered what Banderas looks like now. I wish I hadn't looked. I should know not to do that by now.

    We were in Madrid in late 60’s with our little girls, one of which insisted on us buying her castinettes! Gigi
