Birthday in Trogir

Well, I asked my husband to be guest editor, but he went and drank more than me so that was never going to happen. Weatherwise, it’s been the worst birthday ever! Fortunately, we packed the stuff away last night as I could see rain was forecast this morning. Guy believes in looking out of the window for the weather, and when the sun was shining first thing he thought he was vindicated. However, come 10:30 when we were filling up with water, draining waste tank etc, the heavens opened and it didn’t stop till 4pm! Drove through it until we reached our next destination. We quickly marched in to Trogir, which is a lovely tiny old town on an island, but the wind was still blowing like a hurricane! Had a look in the Rough Guide, and learning by our mistakes, actually booked a table! Jumpers and jeans and jackets on, we ventured out for our meal. It was over-priced rubbish! Red peppers from a jar with grated Parmesan to start. Sea Bass, not bad, but with soggy Swiss chard and tinned chick peas! Then,,,,no chocolate cake available 😢😢😢 On the way out I asked the gay couple opposite if it was the worst meal they’d ever had…. their reply was “oh my God, we thought it was just us!!!” The evening has been saved by a shot of Slivovitz ( Plum Brandy) ….Whoaaaa – that’s strong! 😮
PS I’ve been having a recurring dream about losing my school timetable and not knowing where I’m supposed to be and when, so, this is Guys home-made card for me today….I’m much happier now!
