Cousins

We have been getting some worrying news regarding Beloved Aunt in Toronto. A situation that will require close monitoring.

The day was fairly laid back. The sun was shining and the day seemed perfect. There were domestic chores to complete in the morning and then the Gorse Fox retired to his study and Sketchup to work on plans for a garden tool store for the Silver Vixen (well not for her, for her tools). Time flashed by and it was time to go an watch the England v Belgium game for the 3rd, 4th place playoff. Sketchup will have to wait. We only managed to see the first half but the omens weren't good.

Just as the second half was due to begin, the Silver Vixen's cousins turned up. We retired to the garden with coffee and biscuits a sat an chatted until it was time to head off for a curry. They like our local Indian Restaurant (Zeera Lounge) and we had booked in plenty of time. As usual we were greeted like long lost friends and shown to our table. The meal was excellent... the Gorse Fox selecting a Chicken Shashlick this time, the Silver Vixen had a Chicken Tikka and her cousins had Lamb Aloo Panir and Lamb Dhansak.

Back home we broke out some more coffee and sat and chatted in the Orangery. It really was a lovely evening.
