help! I’VE BEEN ROBBED!!
…that was my cry as I realised my purse (and scarf) was no longer in my bag! “You cannot be serious”; but unfortunately it was.
Whilst we’re only talking 70euros and $100AUD in cash, we are also talking 4 credit cards and the drivers license (no passports fortunately). What a bloody hassle. I am officially pissed off!
And this all happened in one of Spain’s more salubrious chain of stores – “Zara”. Fat lot of good surveillance cameras are after the fact!
So after hours of the Horne’s last shopping day being spent at the police station assisting me, the shine of Barcelona is severely tarnished; well for me at least anyway. Sad really as it is a great city. What a difference a day makes!…however, give me the Africans again any day.
After finally working out how to cash up again, we leave Spain tomorrow and head to Portugal. A little worse for wear now, but no real serious harm done, praise the lord!
Here’s hoping the rest of the adventure goes without a hitch. To quote our friend Mohamed – insha’Allah
ps As for text messaging, it’s all systems go again. However any sent to me in the past two weeks when in Morocco were not stored, so if there are any I need to see, please resend.
