Last night we found a good restaurant and had a meal that we all enjoyed, that is no mean feat for a family as gastronomically challenged as we are. Barnards which describes its menu as international cuisine with a difference turned out to be a bit of a life saver in more ways than one. Dave left us enjoying our first drink whilst he went to the cash point to replenish our money, the restaurant doesn't take cards, only to return looking crestfallen having visited three banks only to find them all empty. We had failed to realise it was a bank holiday. No problem said the charming owner Geraldine, just pay me tomorrow! They willingly cooked chicken goujons (nuggets) for the teenager, prawns for Dave, swordfish for the boy and steak with a Yorkshire pudding (joy) for me, all accompanied by fresh vegetables (a rarity here), saute potatoes and homemade bread, clear plates all round, delicious. We have decided to eat there again on our last night.
Pics- just a couple of unrelated snaps, a typical rooftop and I think the plant is a datura.
