My last greetings from for what I hope is a long time!!!

[SW4Baggie]

All the best on your new adventure. Hopefully, it's not too dramatic compared to a close friend of mine who became the principal at an international school in Barcelona this September. A couple of weeks into the new school year a parent dropped his kids off decided to have a quick coffee in a cafe next door.  Couple of minutes later a motorcyclist rode up to him and shot him twice in the head!
Still nothing my mate wasn't used to as he'd spent 11 years working in Bogota, Colombia

Remember reading that story, if I’m not mistaken the bloke who was shot had previous mafia links and it wasn’t the first attempt at finishing him off - or at least that’s how the press here reported it. 



Thanks for the well wishes everyone else

All the best SW. Hope this chapter of your life is everything you hope and want it to be.

Good luck with everything SW4. I think the board should adopt CE Europa now and hope they can bring us some distraction

Good luck SW4, enjoy the Spanish weather.

It’s a long way to the shrine, your gonna become an armchair. 


I’ve been there a few times and maybe saw 10% of it, I was lucky enough to spend a few weeks in the gothic quarter over looking port velo in dec 2012, hope you enjoy it and keep posting on this Fred to make us green.

Barcelona's alright... but it hasn't got what West Bromwich has.


Brave move. Good luck!

Good luck SW4, you've picked a great place IMHO. A good buzz about the place with old and new mixture of everything in harmony. The people are friendly. Plenty of watering holes about. Some fine restaurants down at the harbour. Remnants of the Olympics. Enjoy.

So very pleased to report that following a mad scramble to the UK over Xmas for some last minute replacement documents, today I received my work permit and permission to stay in Spain permanently.

It’s been one hell of a journey, that despite the efforts of 52% of the UK, I’ve managed to overcome! A nice stroll on the beach after work today was a perfect way to encapsulate the difference between here and Moseley… not that I was ever there

I’ll do a post shortly about CE Europa… since I moved in they’ve gone on a 5 game winning streak and usurped their big spending local rivals at the top of the table, surely it couldn’t  happen again…

Enjoy the life mon.

All the Corner shop family have EU passports so our time in the sun is coming. Right to live. Right to work 

We have all the cards in these sunlit uplands.

The 52% is 30% now apparently.
Still 30% are fuckwits.
