The Table Mat Paradox

Lunch in town today and the most delicious detail is the table mat. Cheese, grapes, walnuts, bread and not one, not two, but THREE bottles of wine, an authentic Roman bacchanalia in the heart of Islam.



I show it to a Colombian friend and 'ALCOHOL'! he roars then goes on to announce to the crowd: 'THIS IS TORTURE'.

The fizzy lime has the last laugh.
