So I tried again, and guess what... yep, this is what I keep getting.
And here's the dialog itself... Anyone see something in it, that might be the trigger? I've retyped it twice now just to make sure I wasn't hitting something goofy, etc.

But Hola! Yo no hablo español nada mas? Nunca mas? Meh, I studied back in school so almost 30???? years ago. I wish I was better at Spanish. I don't really care that I don't remember much French or Chinese but Spanish, I like.
(I'm pretty sure Sept 30th was like a day or so ago, rather than 4 weeks, though
EDIT: I just used the quick reply function with no problem (mostly been using the not so quick one, lately)

But yep, you are correct, it was indeed August 30th and so almost 4 weeks in now. I've actually being spending a ton of time on it, (work, home, traveling, etc.) and haven't been having any issues and finding it quite easy to begin with. I knew a little from over the years working with friends and contractors, but another friend that works in my building was speaking with me the other day in my office, and we were speaking in Spanish, since it's her native language. (She was testing me I think, since I had just told her I just started studying it.) - But she kept laughing though and saying she was amazed how well I was actually speaking and understanding it, being I'm only a few weeks in. But I explained that I'm trying to learn not only the proper pronunciations of the words, what they mean etc., but also the proper spelling. Which to be honest, is probably giving me the biggest issues presently. Mainly because if I try to listen and then type it out phonetically, I'm toast, since Spanish words tend to not sound like I'm used to in English.
But I'm really enjoying it so far, and already feeling quite comfortable with the learning of it. Best thing is, I can put the time in while doing other stuff, since I always use my earbuds. So I'm trying to immerse myself in the language presently to help with that.

One of the things I read mentioned was finding Movies you are well versed with and then playing them in Spanish. The thought is that you know most of whats being said already, but now just hearing it in a different language. Won't be perfect of course, since they sometimes change them up a bit. But the gist of it should come across.

There are also some splendid hats for all connoisseurs of traditional headwear.

Stranger Things, Locke & Key and Bridgerton are also having new seasons on the way.
And Man Hunt has a second season on SVTplay. (Which seems a little odd, because if I remember correctly the first season was based on a real story the detective in question wrote about the case afterwards... so did he write about more cases or did they invent a continued career for him?)

Don't know much about Manhunt but The Internet tells me that it's only just been shown on TV here.
Meanwhile my Sunday night Game Of Thrones rewatch has reached the Ed Sheeran episode.
Where's that fast forward button?
