Scoping out the Scallops

The Gorse Fox and Silver Vixen met up with his little sister and brother-in-law. It's been a while since we had met so we picked a point halfway between the respective homes and met at The Mulberry Bar & Grill(*) at Ramsnest. This was a little speculative as none of us had eaten there previously, but it did have a good reputation and 50% of its profits are given to charity.

Though nestling beside a busy road, it was a nice place with a good (but not over-elaborate) menu. The Gorse Fox was quite pleased with the choice overall. Good spot, and good food. In fact we have booked to go back for dinner at the beginning of August.

It was nice to get the latest news - how Blade is hopeful of an interesting job with a big engineering firm, and of how The Mask is sweating through his GCSEs at present. (Those were the days). They're all heading for Orlando at the end of next month - GF is not quite sure Florida is ready for this!

Oh yes! The scallops were great.

(*) Gorse Fox believes that this is owned by Chris Evans, the Radio 2 presenter.
