Life is good

Life is GOOD.

As another busy weekend is drawing to a close we are resting indoors in front of the telly with Cuddy and the cats. Had a bit of rain last night, for which we are grateful (really) and today has been overcast, but enough of the weather.


Yesterday I was up early to get round the market before going to school, it being my weekend to work. Strangely I really enjoy the Saturday classes - Four hours of proficiency -the highest level so challenging but enjoyable all the more for that. 

Last night we had dinner out in Sitges with Toni, Pilar, Carmen & Bernard. We've been meeting up for regular dinners for a long while now, but this has been our first in some time. Some of you may remember Pilar and Toni from our wedding (good memories?)- Toni is our Bank manager and responsible for our getting Cuddy! 

So dinner was in Sitges at a fairly new restaurant called 'Lady Green' (facebook page), originally called Lady Blues. A veggie restaurant with a fairly limited but tasty menu. We started with Lebanese Lentil soup. Now sure why it's Lebanese as it was really similar to a lentil soup we would make. For main course we had Pakora and ended with cheesecake. The cheesecake was worth the visit on its own- the best I've had for a long while! 

Afterwards we went to another fairly new bar for a drink to celebrate and toast Pilar's retirement. She finished work at Christmas and promises that she will be taking up English again once she gets herself organised. The bar specialises in gin and tonics in a variety of guises, but as I was driving (on the wagon) I opted for a 'San Francisco' -a fruit cocktail. 
All in all it turned out to be quite a late night - we didn't get in until 2am so toady was a bit more sedate than originally planned - no visit to the lottie, but I guess it was a bit wet up there anyway.
