Weekend menu – 10 & 11 June 2016

Strange as it sounds we want a bit of rain. Let me explain. Pete put a scaffold tower up in the courtyard to give him access to the roof valley that has been causing problems. Until it rains to test his repairs he obviously does not want to take it down but in the meantime it is an eye sore and also means we loose a table on the patio if it is               “al fresco dining” weather. You can’t win can you?
