For those who wondered: Jim the Urthwerm and his lovely wife Sarah met up with me this evening for a nice stroll, dinner and dessert. Dinner was paealla and other seafood-centric goodies at La Espanol; dessert came, of course, from the good folks at Rocco's, who provided their usual indifferent service while providing godlike pastries and cafes for les hommes et les filles. I hope this was but one of many adventures for them in this fascinating yet frustrating city.
Hope you all get to meet Jim and Sarah soon too,
Gaz.
