Well, we met up with Ruth and Clive to have a final meal at the Vecchia Trattoria, and Jack didn't disappoint - either with the food, drink or entertainment. The food was absolutely scrummy, and Bev had probably the best spaghetti carbonara ever made! Unfortunately, she couldn't finish it all, and the plate was whipped from the table before she could remember to ask for a "doggie bag" to bring home to us hungry bears!
Poor Ruth and Clive got held up in traffic, so arrived a little late, which was all the excuse Jack needed to insult them most of the evening :-) He asked if they wanted to skip straight to the coffees to save time, and when Clive ordered his food in impeccable Italian, he told him that his French was "passable"! It was a lovely evening with great company and yummy food, topped off with coffees, desserts and free liqueurs!
So long Jack - we will miss you, your delicious food and your wonderful sense of humour! And so long to all Jack's family and staff who have served us over the years - we will miss you all.
