Dude, that paella del campo looks good. Try Alioli which is often eaten with both types of paella. Just don't expect to pull the evening after you've eaten it.
Homework: look up gazpacho Alicantino. Another peasant/shepheard dish specific to the Alicante/Castalla region. I've had it once - amazing. Not to be confused with gazpacho Andaluz, the cold soup.
I wish I could cook.

penne matraciana is one of my easy standby dishes with a ruccola and parmesan salad
I went into a trattoria in italy and picked borlotti beans in a pommodori sauce with foccacia and pancetta
it was beans on toast with lumps of bacon in it :;):

i make my own alioli with oil eggs and garlic crushed with salt to help mash it up, then slowly add the oil to a pesel and mortar
my favourite is tombe, layers of fried potato aubergine, tomatoe and peppers great with cod etc
i learnt early that being a good cook gets the girls rd your house then a good chocolate souffle can loosen knicker elastic not tighten it 
haha
when i was with my lads mum i cooked every night and she threw a A4 picture frame at me once hahah
we were also naughty and had a small taste of nice red wine with the paella and crusty bread

Lobby - only Ken and possibly Mick G will be familiar with the taste-bud tantasliser that is known as lobby in this part of South Lancashire.
Tayters, carrot, onion, beef stock, salt'n'pepper and threaten it with a bit of stewing steak if you can afford it (otherwise it's 'blind lobby'), simmer in a "Lobby Pon" for at least three hours then eat with red cabbage or beetroot.
Proper food!

Folks around Cambridge got a fair bit of snow this afternoon. Strangely enough snow stopped at A11/A14 junction so all we have is a dusting from earlier in the week. Give truckers snow chains I say.

i went to work in spain in 87 with a mate
total disaster as he left me alone after a week ,18 years old with no money
anyway found some work and digs and managed to get by for the summer,but some kindly northern ex pats took me under their wing
2 expressions stuck out for me
"oos ee too? lad" " and "look a chips ton twater"
took me a few weeks to get my head round stuff like that,very friendly people and without them i would have been stuffed.
