the week that was
Tirau stop at Basil and Carols’ fabulous Loose Goose cafe – one of chef David Colman’s divine vegetarian starters the perfect sustenance during this period of calorie consciousness – the merlot probably didn’t help and a shame one couldn’t resist the trio of Kapiti ice creams…..
Auckland and the compulsory stop at the Clare Inn in Dominion Road for a freshen up after a long drive. Calamari salad just perfect – the guiness probably did nothing to lessen the girth but it is an Irish Pub after all and delightful at that!
Business meeting back in Putaruru and dins at Putaruru Arms with proprietress – a kindred spirit also aiming for a summer bod – prawn salad this time but again washed down with a full bodied merlot. Oh dear.
Business meeting, council meeting – cleaning up the river the topic du jour – off soon to meet son in Hami – Hell pizza will no doubt be providing the sustenance tonight – they do a mean salad!
