Madridman
Thanks for the Birthday wish. I can only hope that the letter at the Post Office is what you are hoping for.
My Spanish isn't good, in fact it's BAD. It's just the same as my French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese and Japanese, just enough to get an Hotel, get Food and Beer/Wine, get a Rail/Bus ticket and ask directions. What did Nicole wish you - "Feliz Cumpleanyos ". I know that "Feliz" is "happy", but what does "Cumpleanyos" mean?
Hope that you can help!!!!
David

Thanks "Ilovemadrid".
You have actually answered my question (see above post) without realising it. Nicole didn't have "ñ" in "cumpleanos". I still didn't know the word and my online translator didn't know it either until the "ñ" was inserted.
Thanks for the help.
Yet another day has passed where I have learnt something new.
