Jo and Janet picked us up at midday and we headed over to Pete and Chris’s. We haven’t been over to theirs for quite a while and it was good to catch up.
A glass of Prosecco each welcomed us before we tucked into the main event.
Lunch, as always was first class – with a choice of Starters, Mains and Desserts. I was able to easily steer round my Lent List for this year and happily tucked into…
Homemade Mackerel Paté…
Pork with a Tomato & Herb Topping…
…and finally, Apple Bread & Butter Pudding
We finished off the Meal with a cuppa and ended up chatting for ages. Given our backgrounds, the conversation eventually turned to the latest Sainsbury restructure. With the whole of food retailing currently going through a sea-change – with shoppers’ habits changing – it wasn’t necessarily a cause for celebration, but it was necessary!
On a more positive note, it’s only 10 working days until Janet retires!
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
