ali kaye

I’ve known Ali & Kaye on Twitter for ages (and they have been real life best friends since 2011, though they live on opposite sides of the Iberian peninsula) so it was great to finally meet them both in person and take them out on a tapas tour. As they have both been to Sevilla before we decided to eat our way around Triana and it was a fabulous afternoon. Honestly these two are like a comedy team, funny AF and constantly playing off each other, and hey, they thought I was funny too! Always makes a nice change when people think I’m funny and not a cranky old cynic who hates everything and everyone (who me? 😇).

We even went into “overtime” going for a penúlitma after the tour was over and, since I was off the clock, so to speak, I finally felt able to swear properly again. Heck, by our final tapas tour stop we were already sharing pet photos and comparing scars à la Jaws (don’t ask, but I won!). I would have loved to spend more time with these two lovelies, so hopefully that will happen again before too long. Whenever people dis Twitter I always have many happy-making stories like this to counter all those cranky old cynics. 🙂

The last time I saw Arpy & Fred was back in July 2018 (!!!) in Málaga. So I was thrilled to find out they would be in Sevilla for a quick visit this week. We met up for a fabulous lunch at Barra Baja (with a pre-lunch sherry at Manolo Cateca) and caught up as well as one can catch up five years in less than five hours. Amazing food and even better company. What a great day.

I have known Lizzie (@hollow_legs) for years, both virtually and in person, and last saw her in London in 2016. So I was thrilled to find out she was going to be visiting Sevilla this month with two other London foodie friends Helen @foodstories and Chris @chrispople and so of course we had to get together and do SOMETHING. That something was to take them out for an afternoon to taste Triana.

It was so lovely catching up with Lizzie, and also meeting Helen and Chris in person for the first time. Whenever people dis social media I always think of all the wonderful people I’ve met, and continue to meet, there. It’s like any useful tool… you have to know how to use it.

I don’t know if I’ll ever make it back to London again (I’d love to!) but I know that if I do I won’t lack for lovely friends to meet up with.

At last!!! l finally got to meet Ruben @sherrynotes with his friend Joeri @thewhiskyjury at La Azotea when they passed through town this evening. I’ve “known” Ruben for years online due to our mutual love of sherry – he is a fellow Sherry Educator, as well as the author an amazing sherry blog – so it was a real treat to meet up and have a chat in person. Thanks for a lovely evening guys! 😘

These two! 💛 Susie & James first came out on a tapas tour with me in November 2016, and were back in town for a quick visit so we met up to reconnect and reminisce. Fabulous afternoon out at Bodeguita Romero and Salmedina. Now that they are (mostly) living in Portugal perhaps I’ll see them more often?
