(Almost) hidden garden

The people who own this garden live abroad, so they're not here to enjoy it. Sad, because it looks lovely, through the gaps in the fence.

Last night went really well - everyone said they enjoyed the food, and people here don't say that unless they mean it. The Italian cake was wonderful, and we all talked, ate, drank and laughed until 1 a.m. We're a bit tired today, though! And I had a strong craving for our usual Mediterranean style of cooking, so we had mussels with aioli (garlic mayonnaise) for lunch.
