Return to the Conservatory

 I am getting tired of this recurring theme of where we were supposed to be now compared to where we actually are.   The reality is that we still have to go and celebrate a birthday and the Conservatory struck a chord a few weeks back so we went back for another luncheon.  I switched to the lamb shoulder very tasty with a mint sauce. Debbie tried the duck and was quacking about it.  We shared one desert with a single candle.  Just to change it up we dropped into the bar for a while. There was a fire, the world cup and a spiral staircase, everything you could want. I descended to the games room which I guess used to be a cellar for beer barrels.
