marriage prison

I mean… this photo says it all. I’m not sure if this was an actual wedding photo shoot or if it was intended as some sort of gallows humour (see winch) re: marriage. The bars, the dead flowers, that winch on the wall, grey foreboding sky, not to mention the not very happy looking couple. I guess we’ll never know.

haloween 2022

When I first moved here (1993) the only reference you’d see to Hallowe’en was in Marks & Spencer. Nowadays we have… this. Oh, and they’re animated too. Sevilla gets more like just one big tourist attraction every day.

sevilla, sevilla tapas tours

jason dana andrew

Back in 2013 Jason from Austin Texas joined one of my tapas tours as a solo traveller and had a wonderful time. Then I got an email from him this spring saying “it’s your friend Jason!” telling me he was coming back to Sevilla with his daughter and son-in-law and we started planning a private tapas tour for them, which happened last night. It was a lovely evening and, as they are still here for a few days, I am sure I will be hearing back from them. Love when this happens, seeing people again and knowing they enjoyed their time with me so much they want to meet up again.

An aside, just to make the evening even more special, on my way home two young guys zipped past me on electric scooters and suddenly one yelled out “Viva Sevilla Tapas!”. I didn’t even see their faces, but I assume they were waiters heading home after a bar shift. Anyhow, made me smile.

support local art

You may recall that I own a couple of prints by local artist Alfredo Rodriguez (lower right), now well-known for his colourful sketches of Sevilla façades. Well this week the boys behind La Casa del Tigre (upper left) opened a new bar called El Pantera (review coming soon!) and – I love this – chose to feature Alfredo’s work as a kind of permanent exhibit. Every wall is covered with his prints and the effect is fabulous. What a wonderful way of supporting local art and also creating a unique décor and focal point for your bar. Well done guys!
