After leaving Allard’s house, I was dropped off at the
university to begin my conference. The
second evening I met up with Sue. A girl
I met many years ago while working on the Runes puzzle. She and I lost much sleep over that one. I was very glad we had the opportunity to
finally meet in person.
Her husband Denis came along with and we headed out to a pub
for dinner. I saw some beautiful Swans
and their signets and wanted to pet them. Denis held me back saying the parents
would take my arm off. We can’t have
that now can we?
Off to the pub for dinner.
I had a pie with potatoes, and a pint!
Dessert was a Apple and plum crumble with cream. Traditional British food. I can now cross it off my list.
Of course we had to have another pint or 6 so we spent the
evening nattering away. It was
wonderfully comfortable. Like we had
been friends for years. I brought along Clamsterram and much to the bemusement
of some local characters, We had to take photos. I think they quite liked Rox playing with their
hair….
Unlike my other puzzle meet-ups, we did not puzzle. But we did agree to work the next one
together. Here’s hoping it comes in
soon. It was really a great evening.
Thank you both for having me.
