[Leica] Nathan's PAD 19/7/2020: another backyard paella

[Douglas Barry]

Paella is sometimes lovely and sometimes not - in my limited experience, 
but that looks good. I'm envious.
CoVid infection is not rising in Alicante as it is in Barcelona, is it? 
Over here, we're seeing slightly worrying figures.

But she seeks perfection. Today’s paella was a traditional Valencian one, with chicken and rabbit, with some veggies and snails added in.
