Postcard From Spain

This week’s programme features more great music from the ’70s and ’80s, including tracks by Neil Diamond, Natalie Cole, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, The Beatles and the Isley Brothers.

I will also be introducing listeners to local singing duo Raw, whose music I will be playing from time to time in future programmes. Suraya and Mark, originally from the NW of England, moved to Spain  last year and quickly created a huge following, packing bars and restaurants wherever they appear on the Costa Blanca. They are now moving to the Costa del Sol, where they plan to open a health spa – more details to follow in the coming weeks.

The programme features another of our amusing short stories with a Spanish flavour by Andy Crabb and is entitled “A whole lot of bull”.

This week’s recipe continues the recent tapas theme and will tell you how to prepare patas bravas or spicy potatoes. Full details can be found on the recipe page.
