Blair always fancied himself as country knighted stock and we did pass the site to which the older London Bridge was transplanted today.On the other hand, he was quick to point out that the fire is artificial, the adjacent ornate clock plastic and that he has deep concerns about the gender of the figure atop the Christmas tree. Against these odds we had an excellent meal – better than the Santa Fe hautes salons – in a setting only a bit upmarket from last nights refectory.The wine – despite being recommended ( after we had selected it) as Reagan’s favorite ( how would he know) was really excellent: all praise to the SOM.Credit for the food goes to the courageous ( he showed up) Justin Picard , son of the soil from New Hampshire and a Bernie supporter. Well acquainted with Quebec he has Italy, Ireland and France in his sights. He should be in the sights of a SF restaurant investor!
whew! almost there– last leg …
be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
Re: To the manor born… Ian 100% scientific royalty… great show as I recall as I watched pretty much what my parents liked….marge scornfully remarks to Thomas Ripley upon noting his newfound wealth , ‘to the manor born.’
This is a difficult one…
But good pictures! I could see the cold from the morning still linger by the sweater under the jacket!:)
Ian you look so comfortable in that environment
