We popped into Anne’s Place to send a few emails after we had collected the hire car. Our table looking lovely.

My meal of the tenderest lamb shank, mash, carrots and beans went from an eight out of ten to a nine and a half when a steaming hot gravy boat arrived (would have made ten if there had been mint sauce or a raspberry jus). A sweet rose wine and the company wasn’t too bad, accompanied by romantic old ballads.

My Valentine went for belly pork.

Sunset as we took the water taxi home with Paul. I lost at backgammon and then we flopped into bed to watch an episode of Boston Legal.
 
 
ALL IN ALL A FANTASTIC MEAL
                     FABULOUS END TO A VERY GOOD DAY
