We have moved to our new hosts, Catherine and Andrew, in south SPB. They are lovely, and have made us extemely welcome - they even cooked for us on our first night, taking my awkward vigitarianski-ness into account, which was fabulous. We went to the Peter and Paul fortess today first, but it was all under wraps with the dulcet sound of hammering, drilling and JCB's to add to the ambiance. So we had a quick look in the cathedral, taking note of all the photos of the current Romanov clan, who look in no danger of either starving or dying out.
Got to go, the machine is about to go ping!
