Finisterre

Team, (Lady Caz), permit me a confession...

Another contributing factor to my distraction as of late is the rather bewildering and entirely unexpected event of having met someone...

If you'll kindly cast your mind back to an earlier post, in which I tell the story of Saint Manuel and my trip to Samos, you'll remember I toured the monastery there. What I didn't mention, was that I also met a guy on that tour, and have been spending time together since.
