The January 2014 edition of Viva Lewes sees a number of contributors each trying something different as a New Year's resolution. I fancied learning Spanish.
Do you remember watching John Cleese in A Fish Called Wanda? He
seduced Jamie Lee Curtis with an unlikely combination of Russian and Italian. I
reckon the Spanish language would be even more effective. That's my plan for
2014, anyway. You see, every so often I travel to Spain for work. It's only for a few
days every year and rarely requires me to say much more than 'gracias' in the
local language because I'm heading to an English-speaking trade show. However,
in a few weeks I'll probably be ordering tapas, chatting confidently with taxi
drivers and maybe I'll find an opportunity to use a few words at home, too.
Well, if it worked for John Cleese...
