Look at this shit. The tacky brass with black marble is bad enough, but they actually had the gall to name this place La Jugetería (after the Juguetería F. Cuevas, which occupied this building for 65 years). They might have considered keeping the wonderful original tile work. Shame.

Anne & Paul were back in town this week. Anne was here to get a gamma ray scan and so, with all the radiation tests I’ve been getting lately, she suggested we light up the town together. So we went out for tapitas and sherry and had a lovely time. Our next get together will probably be in Jerez in May, either for the Feria or Vinoble. Or both!

The other night I was walking home after a Sevilla Tapas Tour and, as it was a soft warm spring-like evening, I wasn’t surprised to see José Pérez’s windows open. So I stopped to chat and introduced him to my three guests. And, as ever, he was happy to pose for a photo or two. He actually quite likes people saying hello (and he speaks English) and he also sells his artwork from his livingroom. So if you are interested, just let him know!

Wow, first Official Sandal Weather day keeps breaking records. Last year it was on February 28th, and previously the earliest date on Casa Az record was March 9th 2015. Ah well, the planet may be dying, but my toes are happy. Realised today that I need new sandals this year, and a proper pedi, but for now this will do. 🙂

It’s heeeeere! And as usual I could smell the azahar before I saw it, on my evening walk (hence poor quality pic as it was already dark). And as always I suddenly felt extra happy to be alive. The next 2-3 weeks are going to be heavenly.
