Almeria Half 2008 - last weekend in January - El Gordo - 29-01-2008
I'll post a report of the weekend as soon as I can -- like Sweder, I have some reality to catch up with.
In the meantime though I'll post up some of the Almeria pics on Flickr. Will post a link here when I've done that. Should be soon.

Righto El.
Although I must protest. Sweder doesn't really do reality.
Not in the real sense anyway.

Excellent selection El Gordo, well done.
Nice slideshow option on Flickr, too.

Resolution suffers as they have to be crunched up and optimised but I may be able to improve that.
More to be added for the Monday, plus any that people want to upload themselves. I presume the latter is possible but you may have to join the group first. Ask if you want to try it.

I'll certainly add one or two, though will be careful not to duplicate.
Let me know if I need a code or something to access/ add to your selection.
Gotta dash now - my afternoon meeting has morphed into a round of golf - all strictly business you understand. I have no idea how I'm going to walk on these hammered pins, but I'll give it a go :o

Just tried adding you, but ti seems I may have added you already. Your username is Sweder2007
Let me know if this doesn't work.

Excellent the pictures. I hope you feel really good.
A lot of work at home, including pain (small at this moment). The boys are feeling perfect since yesterday...
Anyway I dream on going swimming and running again.
Wekeend for remember and write.
Keep running on this way

El Gordo covered the weekends' photos pretty well but I've added a couple more from my batch. You can see them here.
I have no idea if I've done this correctly - probably not - but hey, they're up there somewhere so enjoy.
El Gordo, if there's something I need to do to add my pics to your batch let me know, otherwise I'll let these stand/ add to them at this location.
Phew!

I´m glad you all arrived home all right.
The photos are great. Can I add some more? What would I have to do?
All the best
Antonio

I've sent a Flickr invitation to your gmail address. Have a go at uploading your pics. I've got to pop out for a while but let me know later if you're having trouble and I'll see how I can help.
Almeria Half 2008 - last weekend in January - Sweder - 30-01-2008
Antonio, it's easier if you download the Flikr upload tool - you will see this on the page when you accept the invitation to join. This helps you to upload your photos, although I couldn't find out how to add to El Gordo's batch so I started my own.
Good luck amigo!
Almeria Half 2008 - last weekend in January - Antonio247 - 30-01-2008
Muchas gracias, amigos.
Let´s see if I´ve done it well. This is the first part.

S, I´ve also started my own.

I hope the people of Almería are planning a statue.
On the Ramblas perhaps, or in the town square in Pechina
Oh yes - one matter of unfinished business . . .
The basic production method has changed little since Marmite was first invented. Basically, the used brewer's yeast is broken down to release soluble amino acids and proteins. This soluble material is then concentrated and filtered a few times before going through a unique (and top secret) process for flavour development.
At the end of all this, we end up with yeast extract paste - nearly Marmite but not quite. The finishing touches make all the difference. We add an extra blend of vitamins, vegetable and spice extracts to create the taste your mouth adores!

Hmm, well it's not out of the question - I'll probably land myself a high-paying job that requires regular travel to Europe, and particularly Spain in January of each year.

If that's your dream, here's a tip: if someone called Rafa Benitez calls you, slam the phone down immediately....

Perhaps I could land a job with QPR - I hear they're flush with cash just at the moment?
