It was Deb’s first return visit to Sevilla since her lovely Dan died of cancer last December. In fact the last time they were here together was in December 2019 and I took them out to Triana for a little tapeo. Sevilla is a special place for them as many years ago Dan proposed to Deb in the Alcázar gardens and they made regular trips here after that. Anyhow, we met for lunch over the weekend and had a lovely lovely time with her uncle and his wife, and her good friend. Great food and company and plenty of glasses raised to Dan. xx

Another fab time meeting Twitter pals, in this case Cathy and her husband Mark (who are also friends and Algarve neighbours of Yin & Phil who I met a couple of weeks ago). Anyhow, this was a flying visit for them but we managed to fit in a penúltima (or three) at my local bar down the street before they headed off for dinner. Since Cathy and I have “known” each other for years it was like meeting up with an old friend. Hope they’ll be back soon.

I’ve been Twitter pals with Yin @jjassociatesYin & Phil @philjjassociate for YEARS. They live next door in Portugal so they end up coming to Sevilla quite often, but today was the first time we’ve managed to meet up in person. Total kindred spirits in the love of good food and wine department, plus we know a lot of the same bars and bar owners. It’s almost like we’ve been living parallel lives here.

Today we went somewhere they hadn’t been to before, La Barra de Cañabota, with Peter joining us, and we had a great time. Looking forward to future Beer O’clocks with them.
