Oh, what a night.


I just got home from having one of the funnest nights in a long time. Dinner with friends, great food- no wait- excellent food and loads of laughs. Me and 8 friends met at a local restaurant, Chez Michels, and ate the most glorious food I have ever tasted. The salad was a simple green rocket with Belgian Endive, but the dressing was to die for. I had the stuffed chicken breast (stuffed with goat cheese and spinach) which was to die for. The house wine was a French selection, perfect, not too dry not too sweet, it was to die for. Yep, I know, I should be dead by now, with all this stuff that I had that was to die for. Everyone was chatting away and enjoying their food. There was never an awkward silence or anyone looking at their watches wondering when it was appropriate to say that they had to leave. Only the staff was doing that once the clock struck 9. There was nothing left on any of the plates, a testament to the fine cooking skills of the chef. Chef even came out and had his picture taken with us all, such a nice man that Michel. After the meal 4 of us wandered over to the pub to have a last glass of wine and a wee chat. The perfect end to a great evening. We all agreed that once a year is not enough, we need to get together at least once every season. To my friends, Cynthia, Laura, Paula, Dayle, Tracey, Karen, Janice and Diane, I thank you for a great night.

Cheers,
