Heard that almost word for word so many times!
Me too..........so funny!
Was really good!
The poor guy is going to commit suicide!
Awesome - who wouldn't kill to live in a cave in Spain? Especially considering the rent I play for less than a shoebox in the Netherlands. But...I think you left off a question. At least, I'd have asked it:
So....did you dig it yourself???
We have dug some room extensions for extra space - damn hard work! Incredible how the cave was dug over 100 years ago, mind you the entire Spanish family would have been on site...more hands and all that
