From the back, a man in shorts with a suitcase on his right shoulder and a backpack. It's the white stone of Dubrovnik all around. He's passing a church, and there's a priest in a white robe looking wearily at the day. It's early, we're heading back to the airport and I suddenly realise I still love him. Husband, not priest, obviously.

Cat and Sardines, a painting by Duro Pulitika. There's a basket lying on its side with a pile of blueish fish tumbling out onto the floor. Then there's a black cat looking very pleased with itself, and all businesslike. My money is on the cat being responsible for tipping the basket.
