Many thanks for your very moving remarks on our late friend Carlos. I’ve passed them on to Kathleen, Alex and John, and I know that I can thank you also on their behalf.

Interesting; I had much the same conversation with Carlos as your dad did. He loved his home base, but it didn’t stop him from becoming a great traveller in later life, or from appreciating the chosen surroundings of others. He and Kathy came to East Lothian once. I took him for a quick tour of the county. When it was done, he looked at me and said, ‘My Got, why do you come to Spain when you live here?’
