Lunch at The Village Green

 We slept in this morning! By the time we had finished breakfast and done our morning chores it was midday. The morning was dark and wet, which probably explains it. By early afternoon it was really quite dark and we put the lights on to make lunch and they're still on. It has been very wet and squally this afternoon and my GKB says hail is expected.


But it hasn't been like this all week, we had blue skies and warm temperatures earlier on. We also celebrated our 53rd wedding anniversary with lunch out at a nice wee cafe called The Village Green at the nearby soccer grounds. It doesn't look much in the photo but once you find your way in it is rather nice inside. The entrance is at the front of the pavillion, (not up the steps) through the door, down the corridor, up in the lift and along another corridor. A hidden gem  And the food is lovely.


I had a Thai salad and my GKB had battered blue cod with crispy potatoes and salad. Both meals were delicious. You can have a drink from the bar or tea and coffee to accompany it. We generally have a soft drink of some sort. Youngest daughter works here and she always jokingly warns us not to spill our food all over the floor when we go. 


When we arrived home we found this little bag of runner beans in the letterbox. Daughter had dropped them off, picked fresh from one of her friends' garden.

I think that is all. I'm going to do some reading and await this expected hail storm, which will probably be accompanied by thunder. Maybe I'm strange but I quite like a good thunder storm - as long as I'm inside!

  2. Happy Anniversary. Sounds like a nice lunch. Hope your weather improves. We've had many a dreary day lately except for a sunny day yesterday.
