Catching Up
The thing about taking a few days off - in this ever busy, modern world - is that you always come back to a huge pile of e-mails.
So, for all the readers who have been in touch over the past week - it will take a day or two to deal with the backlog of queries.
Meantime, if you're ever thinking of taking a short break to Seville in Southern Spain - it's definitely worth the trip.
The fourth largest city in Spain has a lovely climate - lots of interesting buildings and architecture - and more cafes and bars than you could ever visit - even if you stayed for a whole year.
The best way of getting around is to stroll along the maze of narrow streets - particularly in the old town - but there is also a very impressive network of cycle routes - conveniently and safely located on the pavements.
Something else you can't help but notice is that the city is completely covered with orange trees - with the fruit just left to fall to the ground - which seems like a terrible waste, but there you are.
