 Hi there people, My name is Roberto G.R., 46.8 y.o. I live 8 km or so from a small village named “Olocau”, east coast of Spain … english is not my first language, so please be indulgent if I broke some glass trying to say something … A guy that lives at +5000 km of distance from where I live, and with who I exchange a lot of emails since several years, told me a couple days ago about this site. He gave me a link, that I followed, of course, then ended here. ( That guy is a good one, you know, I will say no name XD ). My friend told me that this place was really easygoing & relaxed, and that no “dramas” were ever at sight… I can see some very well known faces around, people I really appreciate, so that’s a good plus / surprise to me. Good! No name – Spud - Tony Lee – Chris S - Big John – Biskup – Scratchmod – etc… to name the first ones I´ve located just at first sight, and I´m sure that not the only ones present around… Modelling: First and main: I´m slow. When I say slow, it is SLOW.  As Spud (hey mate  ) told once “Jelly, if you go slower, you will travel back in time”. That’s all said, ok? Convinced metrosexual, I can't go out of home with my creams and little pots, hydrating lipstick and so.  See you around, people. Later Jelly

Hiya Jelly. You found the right place. It doesn't matter how slow you build, as long as your having fun doing it. If you do end up going back in time be sure to take LOTS of reference pics for us...lol

I don't know who this Jam fella, OOps! I mean Jelly fella is, but seems like one heck of a nice Spaniard to me! I've never known any other guy named Jelly that was a bad guy. And I knew 14 1/2 of them. Welcome!

Ola Jelly,
Unfortunately my Spanish is very limited!! I can order a beer and say hello...the important things hehehe.
I have been to Barcelona and Madrid a few times and one of my favourite places was Salamanca...I had the best coffee of my life there surrounded by the beautiful architecture on the main square.
My highlight of any trip to Spain was seeing the paintings of Gaudi and Picasso at various museums...coming from New Zealand and being able to see these was mind blowing!
See you on the forum mate,
Shay

On a side note Jelly...my first trip was to Madrid. I had this idea in my head that it was always hot there with palm trees and beaches...I packed only t shirts and shorts, arrived there and it was freezing!!
This was of course before I had internet...hehehe

Hey there @shay : dude, you kill me, so I imagine you landed in Madrid in winter with shorts & t-shirts... well the mediterranean coast is the one with fantastic temperatures during winter (yesterday we were at some+16ºC or so), BUT the inner part of the peninsula can be very, very cold. I know it wont happen to you again, right? @ Luigi / Bullardino: Ciao, come stai, Luigi? Hey man thanks for the welcome see you around ! @chris S: hey SuperChris how are you, mate?? hope everything UC (Under Control) I'm fine thanks, now I'm resting a little... as you can see in the next pic, I've been enduring very hard times recently &  |

Hi there people, 
As Spud (hey mate 
) told once “Jelly, if you go slower, you will travel back in time”. That’s all said, ok?
