Happy New Year everyone. And happy new vaccine too. Hurrah for the boffins at Oxford & AstraZeneca. It's the beginning of the end of the beginning of the end, or something. Hopefully.
Despite its name, this town isn't connected with Lorca the poet, the one I mentioned in my Granada blog. It's just a nice sunny little place up in the mountains, a stop-off between AlmerÃa and the cities that lie ahead. Really I only came here in order to be able to make an witty comment about 'living la vida Lorca'. And I've done that now. I'll get me coat.

| Edd vs Food #98 Chicken madras at the Taj Mahal Tandoori. As a true patriotic Englishman, I like to soothe my homesickness with a steaming hot Indian curry. This one wasn't quite spicy enough to make me cry, but my nose did run a bit. |
