My sister was seventy yesterday (she doesn't look it). Today, she's gone down to London for tea at the Ritz.
I looked it up online as I was curious as to how much something like that costs. It begins at forty pounds (about $ 70). Fifty two if you fancy a glass of champagne.
I suppose it's the sort of thing you do once to see what you're missing.
I'm content with my big pot of curry.
I had a fun morning las Saturday, exchanging tweets with Michael Winner on the subject of Indian food (as he was hoping to go out for Indian). I never thought I would say it, but I really do like him ( a lot of people don't), He's witty and to me at least polite, though I know he's the worry of many a restauranteur. Brit ones at least can rest easy in the knowledge that he is currently in the south of France and last night Madonna was on the next table when he had dinner. Mid- week he had dinner with Michael Parkinson and his wife.
Mind you, he's not had the welder and Pat round for an evening's entertainment and mirth has he ? Eat yer heart out Michael.
