2007 Dinner, 2008 Breakfast

The Fab Four had decided to celebrate the change of year together. On New Year’s Eve, Pixie’s renowned attention to detail and her fondness for colour co-ordination was directed to laying this inviting dinner table.

On seeing it, I realised I should have brought golden Christmas crackers, but, bathed in the warm glow from a lit corner of the room, these silver ones obligingly assumed an auric air.

The next morning dexterous Dave rustled up our call-orders, deliciously fresh from his man-sized stove, adding a surprise splash of Madeira to the pan-fried mushrooms, thereby instantly redefining the term “Full English Breakfast”.
