Pru I've had brain freeze for ages. Sad news - the meal wasn't nice at all. The crackling refused to crackle and there's nothing worse than bendy chewy pork skin. The roast itself was unpleasant; full of gristle and muscle and fat and sinew. The mashed potatoes were far too bland. The salad was nice though. And the ice cold beer was ice cold delicious.

Large Tsing Tsao beer, ice cold and frothy. Followed by Black Forest trifle (fresh berries).
Well, that's not for one, then, is it? And as for your 'ice cold' obsession, one day you'll get brain freeze, and then you'll regret it!

Thermidor of Lobster with buttered leeks and Morney sauce. Followed by a little cup of cauliflower and cheddar cheese soup. A main course of Roast fillet of Low Howgill Farm pork, creamed cabbage and bacon, dauphinoise potatoes, black pudding 'bon bon', and a little garden sage and onion Yorkshire pudding. To finish, a berry pavlova with hot chocolate sauce and a selection of Eden valley cheeses.
That sounds lovely Dixie but I feel a bit deprived because it is my birthday today and I think I am just having cake with fifty-five candles and champagne.
