      @pablovegara, Allow me to put things in a little perspective with a personal anecdote. I read this forum and avoided posting on your previous thread. A little introspection on your part would not go amiss and I do not wish to irritate or cause...

      GailGwyn reacted to Tincatinker's post in the thread Trouble with Hospitaleros with Haha Haha.
      Nope. I’ve met a few pilgrims I wish I hadn’t. Having drunk in the Coach and Horses when Norman Balon ruled the jump I can honestly state that I have never encountered a hospitelero/a that hasn’t acted with integrity. Even when they’ve...
