Im trying to make it my mission to draw a 7 pointed star before I go home. I’ve been to the tat shop and bought a compass and have pages of perfect circles but can’t get as far as finding point R! Have even googled but no joy. My family and friends I’m on holiday with think I’m a complete weirdo. Do you have instructions for numptys?

Great to find your website after chatting to a friend about Grenada and googling.

Years ago I introduced you at Waterstones Bookshop in Manchester when Driving Over Lemons became a best seller. As I remember we all (including my wife to be) went off and had some beer and noodles in town after. Fun!

I do hope things are going well for you. I must devote some time to reading you website.

Best wishes,

Andrew

I hope you are all in rudest health, and summer turns out to be more beneficial. I haven’t contacted you before, but through my love of Spain I felt the need to say hello.
I live in Lincolnshire, soon to move to Northants (it’s unbelievably complicated) but have been very fortunate in the past to travel most of the eastern side of Spain. My first 2 years there, I travelled exstensively, Vic being one of my chosen towns (and home of a Catalan friend) to poke around in.
My fiancee loves to travel (though we’re pretty poor, LOL) and through your books I’m very slyly trying to persuade here to visit Granada province as it’s my favourite part of Spain to date, though I’ve uncountable fond memories of kindness wherever I lived in Spain, though my spanish is still pretty ropey to the locals after all this time.
Your website is a ‘little breath of fresh air’, and as always…entertaining. Please keep up the good work and…I can’t wait for your next book!
kind regards
Shaun

Have read all 3 books 4 times over past 10 years, will go mad without a further read! Regards, Sylvia

That very same day I was reading you book and you repeated this observation. Never heard this in all my 58 year and then twice in one day it was a bit weird. Just thought I’d share it with you though you may have some better insight into the significance. Regards Alison Todd (potter)

I have just returned from a long weekend in Spain and I would love to purchase some spanish guitar music. The back ground listening kind. As you are a musician/guitarist and appreciate the spanish guitar would you be able to recommend a couple of albums? I appreciate we all have different tastes so you have my word if they are not what I am after I will not utter a word. Many thanks! Dianne
