  • Can't make up my mind ........ George Harrison, Reginald D Hunter, Stephen Fry ???

    You can see that I don't have 'a type' image  - however although GH's shy smile has always made my heart skip a beat, I'm afraid that either of the other two would probably be better company over a meal. 

    I've met a couple of my 'teenage idols' and the conversation was stultifying so I'll go for someone with proven ability in the conversation stakes (this is a meal we're talking about after all  image)

    The meal itself?  Grilled lobster with garlic, chilli and parsley butter, an aged rare ribeye steak from a British Native breed with a salad of lamb's lettuce, a board of wonderful cheeses and finishing with a wedge of grilled caramelised pineapple please. 

    To drink - a bottle of Muscadet de Sevre et Main sur lie and another of Chateauneuf du Pape would be fine image

    Oh, and perhaps some Calvados image

    Prawn linguine with crab sauce. Rib eye steak, new potatoes and salad. Apple crumble  with cream. Don't know a lot about wine so will stick with a nice chilled Chardonnay. image

    Frit he might prefer a Greasy Chip Buttie  image

    My list has got longer image

  • Please enlighten me about the differences in wine, Hosta, as I said I don't know much about wine haven't been able to afford it much. Don't go out  very often, but occasionally I might have a bottle of cider,image

    Cider might go better with the greasy chip buttie .KEF image
