Golan: �sa tampoco es mala, no… :�)
Mariajo: me alegro de que te guste :�) �D�nde estuviste t�? �En Alemania?
Anto: �fine open air versus narrow-mindedness and `racaneo’ at work�. I like it.

In spite of the age burden -mature as I�m suposed to be- or for this very reason maybe , I can�t help but feeling envious of you and your movements and insights there, at the hub of today world, one of then.
Here, on the Andalusian coast, you too can enjoy life, with its local and personal contradictions: fine open air versus narrow-mindedness and “racaneo” at work (something I don�t think you can get used to even when retirement date arrives), poor cultured atmosphere and freedom as well, readings, movies, meetings… (the quite broad chapter or leisure possibilities you have) and lack of time… The quick going by of time, perhaps one of the worst things you have to put ut with, either in London or in my Axarquia village, independently of your age, I think. But I�d better pen off here now. Be well.

Gracias; me alegro mucho de que os gustase esta entrada :�)

Jaime: esas cosas las discutimos el mes que viene con una canya, vale? ;�)
malglam: se siente envidia de lo que no se tiene, por mas que se tengan otras muchas cosas buenas, verdad? Asi somos. A mi, por ejemplo, a veces me da mucha envidia de los amigos que tienen ya un hogar y un hijo en vez de ser unos “balas perdidas” como yo ;�)
Loren: claro, me imagino que esos sentimientos contradictorios tan especiales no dependen tanto del lugar como de uno mismo y sus circunstancias, no?
Chewie: well, at least musically, you are :�)
teo: well, for me, the definition for London is rather “Northern Line is partially suspended due to planned engineering works” :�) But “contradiction” is not a bad one, actually.

Posiblemente la mejor entrada que has escrito, posiblemente…

Aunque algunas cosas quiz�s hab�a que discutirlas, quiz�s…
