Hello,

Well after thinking I was getting December in hand turns out I’m not quite there!

On my list to Santa the first thing would be a few more hours please !

It would appear Christmas has arrived in my vicinity with slippers on, we have quite a few events on this week which will leave me no time to fit in a delivery menu for next weekend, apologies to you for the late notice.

That then leaves weeks 50 & 51 in the calendar year, then Santa comes !!!

Lordy where did it all go ?

That turned out to be a darn chilly week, then last night we went to bed and it was minus blahdy blah and while we were asleep the weather fairy turned the thermostat up and hit the rain button, what a swift change today has been.

Then the news is that the Lake District is closed due to a foot of snow !

That weather fairy hasn’t stopped.

I hope you are all being eased into December somewhat softer than it has arrived here, I feel a bit like I have been sneaked up on, even though I knew it was coming.

Have a good week and watch out for fairies,

Best wishes,

Nick & Karen

Hello,

How many saw that one coming?

David Cameron back in the cabinet.

Feels like a chess move, played by what were once called Grandee’s.

Interesting……………..fingers crossed, but I wouldn’t envy anyone in the position of representing a country to other countries in this fractured world right now.

On a much smaller scale, closer to my heart, just trying to keep older dogs from over chastising a growing puppy is fraught enough, being good at dealing with confrontation is quite a skill I have never possessed, I take my hat off to those prepared to take on such massive tasks on behalf of others.

The trees behind our house are an array of autumn colours, they remind me of a jigsaw I once had as a child, it seemed to take forever to find the pieces with all the leaves, the easier bit was the pony running through the woods, I think it was black beauty.

Putting away jigsaw pieces was far less messy than the continual round of collecting leaves up!

The arrival of Christmas is skipping along at a pace, attached along with this week’s menu are the Christmas menu and the New Years Eve tasting menu for you to preview. We hope it will appeal and help ease in the arrival of 2024.

A white Christmas?

Will you be betting on it being a white one, weather forecasters don’t seem able to make their minds up on that one.

Enjoy the week ahead,

Best wishes,

Nick & Karen
