3rd January. A Happy New Year to you (I nearly added: to you both). I hope you emerged intact from what can be an emotionally draining time for some. Stress, families, alcohol and an ill-considered phrase or two are often among the usual culprits - in vino veritas - need I say more.
We spent lunchtime on New Year's day ensconced at our favourite restaurant (no prizes for guessing where!). The owners opened up only hours after going to bed at 4am that morning! They are made of strong stuff in the Pays Basque..
I noticed that the car was showing the outside air temp to be 22.5°C.. it felt like summer.
