Thursday again and Ben has just phoned with news of his trip to Las Vagas! We had a good weekend with Mandy & Dave and their garden is restored once more. I am waiting to see the pansies in full bloom in Hampton Hargrave. Shopping last night and then to the Ship Inn by the canal. We haven't been there for years and did not have good memories of previous meals. However, all that had changed and there were 3 very snug fires!! Yes it really is that cold here and we have put the heating on in the last couple of days. They had a good varied menu including a set one with 2 or 3 courses for a set amount. We both had mushrooms in a creamy Stilton sauce which was good but could have done with a bit more Stilton. J followed this with pork Dijon with salad and chips and I had salmon salad. J was impressed with the price of beer so all in all a successful evening.
I am off to the Southport Arts Centre on Saturday to help out with a Literary Festival - I have become a Sefton volunteer so watch this space for more exciting things!!! The badger group is looking for helpers for a big survey so I am hoping that we can become involved in that too !
Mel seems fully recovered from San Francisco and jet lag never seemed to happen.
