Hello and welcome to the October edition of Soltalk . I am astounded to realise that we are now in our 20th year of publishing the magazine ! Wow that can ’ t be possible can it ?? But it is . And it is thanks to all our loyal readers , advertisers and contributors so thank you one and all , and let ’ s hope we will make it to our 21st year despite the difficult situation we find ourselves in around the globe .
It is hard to find anything to talk about that doesn ’ t mention the pandemic but I will do my best ! Who watched the new Great British Bake off Episode 1 ? If so what did you think of Matt Lucas replacing Sandi Toksvig ? I loved the opening few minutes of the show where Matt impersonated Boris Johnson standing at a lectern carrying the sign “ Stay Alert , Protect Cake and Save Loaves ”. One thing I love about being British is that no matter how dire a situation we find ourselves in , we can still try to laugh about it ! Oh dear I did mention the pandemic after all !
Still we have to believe that sooner rather than later we will either have enough “ herd ” immunity or there will be a vaccine which allows us to go back to almost normal . Even testing with faster results would be a tremendous help and they are working on that as I write . Let ’ s just hope that all the lovely businesses in the Nerja area will be able to survive such a long period with fewer visitors .
Well here we are with all our regular features for you , and there are also starting to be a few more events in the area than a few months ago . So , we hope you enjoy October , and this issue of Soltalk .
