One Of The Magpies,

called round for an early feed,


then for us it was glad rags on,

as we were going out for Sunday lunch,

a quick pose as we left,

well I had to have one more!

and this is where we are going,

to My Place, in Beckenham High Street,

the bar looked nice,

as did Diana,

we were in the front part of the restaurant, and we had it all to ourselves,

Diana ordered a cocktail,

which came in two parts!

'Cheers!', from Diana,

our table faced the street, and how romantic,with the lighted candle,

our starters arrived, tomato soup for Diana, parma ham and melon for myself,

'Cheers!',
 
from both of us,

we both decided on roast beef,

and there was plenty of it,

'Ah!',
 
what better than a Sunday roast?

we had a long break,

before our desserts, what a lovely meal and such a nice restaurant, we had eaten there many years before, but this time there is a new management in place,

normally we watched a couple of sci-fi movies, but today as Specter was on we watched that, guess what? Bond came out tops, well no surprises there then!

Rainham Steve sent us a few photographs of some succulents we took down with us, 

I had picked a few of the small off shoots,

that ours had to take down as he likes indoor plants,

and I have to say he made a great job of landscaping them,

 in mini gardens, 

to round our evening off a film, this what I wrote the first time we watched it, 'a real treat as we both had not seen or heard of it before The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, you get 6 stories for the price of one, each story with an ending that was not in the least expected', 

and here is the official trailer, if you have not watched it, give it a try, I can almost guarantee you will never guess the ending of each of 6 stories in the film, until it happens! and here is something that I would never have guessed until it happened, I bit into a piece of chocolate,

and snapped off one of my front teeth, note self, as soon as they open tomorrow morning, telephone the dentist! and with that we were off to bed.
