So lovely to have some warmth in the sun in Zagreb and Maribor.

Two weekends,  two games, two Indians (footie fodder), and one new tattoo and most importantly time with N in Zagreb.  And in between four gentle days discovering the second main city of Slovenia, Maribor.  Time to mourn my lovely friend JG, who has known us both since N was a baby.    I stayed at the hostel, which is very nice, and had my own little room with cooking facilities, so could pretend I was living there.  I managed to potter, go up a mountain and have a swimming pool virtually to myself.  I loved just being able to sit in the sun and enjoy a coffee and walk across the bridge into town.  Lots of women my age there and families,  a couple of nice art galleries and even a castle and only two hours from Zagreb.    Magic. 

Meanwhile back in the UK my friend Bob was up in Suffolk working to get the vote out,  so it was brilliant on Friday morning to wake up to find that not only had Adrian Ramsay got in but the other three GPs had been elected.
