If you could go anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
I'm torn between:
a) a small, dark Parisian cafe, eating simple beef stew and drinking a busty, bottle of Burgundy red (maybe not the whole bottle in the hour!); or
b) a wee, churros con chocolate stand in Barcelona early morning, standing around with all the workman eating hot, greasy donuts and drinking thick hot chocolate!!
