It's the start of a new week and if you have to go out today.......

BRRRR. It is flippin' freezing out there, the wind chill will cut you in half, so wrap up warm. ♪Spring is in the air ♪ Have a nice day ya all.

There'll be myself and the gf, Boaty, if that's ok. Must admit, I can't wait to meet you!!

[waterboatman]

I'll book a table for three. What time are you expecting to arrive here? I'll book the table for an appropriate time.
i'm looking forward to meeting you too.

[WELSHYORKIE]

I'm anticipating checking in at Stonehouse between 4 and 5 - depending on traffic

[waterboatman]

OK. I'll book the table for 7.30 if that's OK with you.

[WELSHYORKIE]

Perfect - see you in Shepherds Patch - i'll get the postcode off the website and trust my satnav won't get me lost!!!

[waterboatman]

I can pick you up if you like.

I recommend the Pheasant dish,for a hearty meal at The Tudor Arms,this time of year Welshy! :-)x

[waterboatman]

Good recommendation zhu! :o}

Good morning to you all, looks like being a really pleasant day here in the eastern shires.

We have the extremely sad task of visiting friends today who have just been pre-deceased by the 3rd of their 5 children. How they are coping I really don't know.

[WELSHYORKIE]

That would be brilliant, Boaty - I presume you know where the travelodge is? I must adnmit, i've never had pheasant but if it's highly recommended, i'll have a taster!!!

[waterboatman]

Morning jd. please give my condolences to your friends. I know how they are feeling.

[TheOtherHalf]

jd- thats so sad. I dont know how I would cope. Hope everything goes ok

[WELSHYORKIE]

Mine too jd - I know just how much it hurts my father in law to have lost one of his children (and to have 2 more diagnosed with alzheimers in their 50s)

[Zhukov]

it was my 1st try too Welshy - it was every bit as rich and luscious as i had imagined..

..but i recall Boaty saying The Tudor do fine things with beef and lamb,from the nearby Salt marshes!

[Zhukov]

sorry jd ..i missed your post whilst typing!

[waterboatman]

They only do the salt marsh lamb and beef on Sunday lunchtime.
