debs 2023 me, lorna, debs & claire

It’s been just over a year since Deb was last here. This time it was a “girls’ trip” and I was invited to join Deb, Claire and Lorna for lunch.  I also got to chose the restaurant so we went to the orginal La Azotea location, where Deb hadn’t been to before (she knows their Santa Cruz one well). Lots of glasses were raised to Dan, love of Deb’s life, and lots of memories shared. Dan died just before Christmas two years ago and Sevilla was their special place. It was where Dan proposed to Deb and somewhere they often came back to. As you can see below lots of glasses were raised in general and, including an extra long penúltima after we left La Azotea, our lunch finally finished around 9pm (!!).

So much fun, though, spending the day with these lovely, smart, caring and funny women. I didn’t want it to end. Looking forward to seeing them all again.

oh really

Yeah yeah… I know they say that imitation is a form of flattery, but I mean look at this fucker. New Instagram account basically calling his tours by the same name as mine. And it’s not like he doesn’t know me, or who I am. For the past year or so I have noticed this guy almost everywhere I go on my tapas tours. So not only copying my tours but also my name??

You’d think that if you were starting up a food tour company you would choose a distinct name so that it wouldn’t be confused with one that has been established for 15 years… oh wait. UNLESS THAT IS THE POINT. It’s actually a bit pathetic that he doesn’t want to build his brand on his own.

Anyhoodle… fuck him. Also, if you have to describe yourself as THE BEST (as he does on his website, in very poor English) then you clearly aren’t. I mean, this guy isn’t going to take away any business from me, but it irks that he thinks he can by appropriating my brand. Jerk.
