General - MexiMixed Up

Clare and I had some quality time with each other this weekend and it  has made us both feel much better I think.  really.  We had a most enjoyable few days not doing anything to excess but watching dvds, going out and eating good food.  Her family from the land down under have invited me over so I guess I’d better keep in Clare’s good books now.

On Saturday evening we went to visit friends then took a quick detour to the Dove Street Inn and sampled a beer or two from the 19 on offer from cask!!!  before moving on to a Mexican restaurant called Mexi Mix.  The food was tasty but I thought it was a bit of a rip off with small portions, but the beer choice was good and the food cooked and presented well.  I shocked Clare a little when I told the owner it was expensive for the food I’d had and she must have felt guilty as I was given a free sweet.  That’s one thing wee are not so good at in the UK complaining if we’re not happy, but this time I had to say something.  The same money in an Indian would have purchased us a banquet.  Don’t get me wrong I’d go back in a shot but I felt a little unhappy with the amounts given.

We took the dogs out for a run on Sunday in the park and I slept for most of the evening as I had an early start today and am at the start of a long week touring the Lowlands of Scotland and the North of England.

More soon
