Jeremy, Del & Me |
Eventually we set off to The Spread Eagle pub which is just around the corner where we enjoyed more chat, draught ale, red wine for Jeremy, and a delightful meal. I had calamari, Jeremy the scallops and Del started with a prawn cocktail. These were beautifully presented by a chipper young server so it all started well. Fish pie and roast chicken, the mains, were delicious and who could then resist the large profiterole (cream puff) which I had and the raspberry sorbet chosen by Jeremy? Del was too full for dessert... I can't even imagine being too full for dessert! The Spread Eagle is a delightful spot. I shall surely return.
Just a short walk home in the cold, damp fog where we ended the evening with tea.
I am so pleased they drove up from London to visit and wish they were staying longer. However, duties beckon in London.
Jeremy & I realized we have now known one another for over 40 years and we do manage to see one another at intervals. In the interim, thank goodness for emails!
I am so very grateful for old friends!
