granada, sevilla

Karin with Loki last night on the sofabed, giving him a goodnight kiss. Azar was NOT amused by this overnight guest business and spent most of the time sulking in the bedroom.

So Karin (dragonqueen) is now winging her way home – Jean-Marie (ToyBox) left on Sunday – and it’s time to get back to normal around here. Which means catching up on my SimonSeeks stuff and doing a tapas tour tonight with Spanish chef José Pizarro, who will soon be opening his own restaurant in London.

It was a great mini-meet and a fabulous trip to Granada (thanks again, K!). I’ve uploaded some photos though they are still mostly unedited. Click on the link below to have a look.

granada

Sitting up at the Huerta de Juan Rana yesterday afternoon, enjoying the view and a cold beer (after the long walk up some cold refreshment was very welcome). Today we will be over at the big orange thing in the background, then a quick lunch and home again.

And speaking of lunch, dragonqueen took me out to a most fabulous place that had been recommended by Agustín – and it really was wonderful. Later in the evening we met up with a couple of Twitter friends John & Gail and they took us to a typical cheap & cheerful seafood bar. Photos below, with the usual warning – don’t look if you’re hungry!

seville, simonseeks, work

Squeaked in with two hours to spare last night, meeting my first SimonSeeks deadline. Got all 25 hotels up and, although there will probably still be a bit of tweaking to do (waiting to hear back from my editor), the first leg is finished and I can breathe a sigh of relief. Also very importantly – I can now send in my first invoice!

Two more deadlines to go: November 5th for restaurants and November 26th for all remaining copy (museums, attractions, nightlife, shopping, etc). Anyhow, check out the hotels page and let me know what you think – feedback, constructive criticism and suggestions are most welcome.

diana porter

A while ago I talked about longing for some Diana Porter Jewellery and it did cross my mind that I might drop into her shop in Bristol while I was there, but what I hadn’t imagined was that it would be a fast very last minute in-and-out visit and that I would actually end up buying something! (I blame Lizzie) What happened was that we were hanging out in Lizzie’s charming Folk House Café when she suggested I might want to take a walk along Park Street before we went to the train station. It turned out that Diana Porter’s shop was right across the street and so…
