We met up with the Jolly Roger tonight. The three of us had dinner at a very busy Två Små Svin. It was great to see a local restaurant so popular quite apart from enjoying the food, atmosphere and company ourselves. It was also lovely to chat with Roger over a few small plates.
Obviously I had my usual steak tartare along with a second plate of bratwurst on sauerkraut.
Of course, the girls came with us and were perfectly behaved. Afterwards, having extricated ourselves from the crowded room, we went for a short wander down to the beginning of the harbour.
The night sky was beautiful and Trosa looked just as magical. It really was a splendid night. Pretty much an echo of the day.
Mirinda, Nicoline and Emma, having all recovered from last night’s French meal, went for a long walk at Krymla. Mirinda left the house shortly after helping me finish off the last of the apple cake over our usual morning coffee. Nicoline was right, the cake is too delicious by half.
(Talking of French cooking, I received the detailed itinerary for my week in Toulouse today. With less than a month to go, it is getting quite exciting. Also, I know what we’ll be cooking so there may be some practice before I go.)
But that wasn’t all that we did. We also made our, possibly, final journey to Euromaster at Nyköping. We not only had our tyres changed from winter to summer but, on Nicoline’s advice, we bought the winter tyres home with us, to store in the shed rather than the tyre hotel.
It was a bit of a shame really; sort the end of an adventure.
Back in 2020, when Tommy told us that we had to have winter tyres (we were unaware such a thing was required) we first went to Euromaster, on his advice, and have used them ever since. The staff have always been super helpful, particularly in moving our tyres around the country to find us. From Tyresö to Trelleberg then finally to Nyköping, it has been a big adventure for the tyres as well.
So, goodbye Euromaster, you have been splendid.
And, finally, a big thank you to Två Små Svin, for a lovely Trosa night out.
An all round delightful Friday.
