THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS.....

Manchego & Humboldt Fog cheeses,Spanish hard chorizo (not the Mexican crumbly type), marcona almonds, olives, marinated grilled octopus (if I can't find any fresh octopus to cook or just want to throw together a really quick snack, then a can of Roland smoked sliced octopus does the trick), and some good chewy dense bread, all washed down with a bottle (or two) of Sarasola Sargadoa Basque cider. Traditionally the cider is poured by holding the bottle up high above the head and pouring into a small glass that is held just below waist level. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!
