After all the gastronomic excess, Ken, Kathy and I finally took a bit of excercise; a Sunday stroll out from the village into the country for a good hour and a half. Lush vegetation, mountain views, a saffran farm, chickens and rain at the end. Not that that mattered, we had indoor plans for the rest of the day. first of all, lunch with Eamon and Liz, Scottish friends who are staying nearby on holiday. What a lunch ... asparagus wrapped in serrano, huge amounts of steak which Christian cooked and ..... huge amounts of wine served by Eamon à la Christian. We were having such a good time, with lots of laughs and a few reminiscences about the people that we used to work with that it was 6pm before we knew it and time to go.
It was then on to James and Beverley's for an apéritif but we didn't stay for too long ... don't let it be said that we can't take a hint!
