"the man!"

Hi Chiara, sooooo good to have you back on the board. Funny, I just got back from visiting my brother in England and I brought him 4 "turrones" which did not last very long amongst a bunch of Spain missing Brits (I almost lost my hand when I delivered them  ) Sorry, I did not know that TIENDA only shipped within the U.S.A.  Hmmmmmm... although I understand perfectly your Spanish written above, I am going to have to insist that you translate it into English as well next time so we do not alienate any "gringos" who visit the board  Saludos, jer... p.d. I am going to have to start offering a happy "turr�n" shopping and shipping service to non U.S. residents, what do you think? Would that make the world a better place or what!

well for that translation - just a lamentation for a piece of turron and for not being in enchanting spain at this special time. and now for translating one of spain's most popular villancicos that's christmas carols in spanish - here goes well .... bell on bell and on one (two, three and so on ) bell , look out of the window and you'll see a babe in a cradle, bethlehem, bells of bethlehem, bells rung by angels bringing us good news. How about this translation - does not do it much justice but anyway ...did my best. About shipping Turron, please say you mean it otherwise I may never forgive you for teasing me about this sore point !!!! my dear Jer !!!! how about some villancicos on your page !!! my turn to tease you now !!!! enjoy your view xxxx
chiara felice

Yeah Chiara, the translation does lose a lot but thanks. Darn shame that only the U.S.A. can get mail order turr�n at the holidays. Well, since it is not illegal to ship turr�n (not an open meat or veggie product), I am willing to do the legwork and get some to Malta if you let me know the specifics (what type and quantities, etc). As you well know there are dozens of flavors and brands, I just want it to be as easy as possible on my end. I guess this service is not too far from the custom photos and videos I offer of Madrid at www.multimadrid.com/mm_info/customstuff.htm and if it catches on I can start charging small fees for it. Another great (not to mention "tasty") way to help sponsor my site This will obviously be limited to non U.S. residents since I do not want to compete with TIENDA in the U.S.A. as they offer a great service and already sponsor multimadrid. Saludos, jer...
