We are getting adventurous, Knowsley last week and Formby tonight! First to Tesco to stock up ready for Lynn, Pete and Dad at the weekend then off to the Red Squirrel. I actually got J to sit outside for a meal... However, the conversation went like this.
Can I set up a tab please we are going to have a meal?
Yes, where are you sitting?
Outside.
Oh no, you can't set up a tab if you are sitting outside.
OK I will pay by card for the drinks.
We sit in the sunshine (rare event these days but today was sunny) and choose our meals. Chicken, leek & ham pie for J and black pudding, bacon and egg salad for me. Next conversation.
Can I order some food please? (to same bar person as earlier)
Yes, where are you sitting?
Outside.
Oh no you can't order food for outside, but you can set up a tab now if you stay inside.
Once again the idea of sitting in the evening sunshine having a glass of wine and a nice meal was foiled. I think J gave them a tip off!!
The pie connoisseur was happy, the salad was ruined by far too much honey and mustard sauce. And so back home to unpack (J), put out the rubbish (me) and watch England lose to Germany at football (I assume that will be the result!)
Is there anybody out there?? xx

Fear not, I read every word. Nice that it's warm enough to sit outside in the evening. Thoroughly disappointed by SF's "summer". Sounds like you had a nice time with L,P and GD. Looked into flights for xmas - think I'm going to have to sell my organs to science :)
