so we are out for lunch,
a glass of medicinal red wine and a prawn cocktail for myself,
'Cheers!',
then to our main courses,
some Thai food for Diana,
roast lamb for myself,
Diana's dish,
and my roast,
instead of a dessert, we were both full to bursting we went with a latte coffee,
here goes for the cocoa spread on top of it,
delicious! if you fancy a British pub for your Sunday lunch or any other meal for that matter give the Punch & Judy a try, but get there early or late for a table on Sundays, it is that good that most times we eat there all of the tables are occupied by 1.30 in the afternoon,
what better way to while away Sunday afternoon than watch a old British black & white movie? although Diana does not normally like old films she was captivated with the film The Man Who Could Work Miracles, written by H. G. Wells it tells the story of a ordinary man given extraordinary powers, of course whilst watching the film it does raise the question, what would you do if you had been given the same powers of George McWhirter Fotheringay? who is the man in question,
we had bought a two disk version of Erik the Viking but had not yet watched them so a trip back to the times of Ragnarok and the Norse myth, the so-called "Twilight of the Gods" (called in German Götterdämmerung), the final destruction of the world in the great conflict between the Æsir (gods) on the one hand, and on the other, the giants and the powers of Hel under the leadership of Loki who escaped from bondage, strangely Loki is portrayed in the film as a double dealing servant of a blacksmith, but the film is great fun with so many subplots like the Christan missionary who can not see things that Eric sees as he is not a believer,
to round the evening off a few more from Colditz, the end is near as the guns of war can be heard in the distance, the captors now start to make friends with the captives, before it is too late, which it was for us, so we were off to bed.
