I was out at a Christmas dinner this evening with the Leavers' Group which was a really nice occasion. I started by turning up at the wrong restaurant (despite clear instructions from my colleagues!) but despite this I wasn't all that late. The meal took the form of a carvery, for which type of cuisine I have a soft spot, due to fond memories of the Albany Hotel in the late 70s and early 80s. The Albany had the first carvery in Glasgow as far as I am aware and it was very popular in those days; I thought it was the height of sophistication! I no longer think of carveries as fine dining; however the food in the carvery at the New Farm this evening was tasty and plentiful. I had a festive and very jolly evening in great company and I was glad that I went along.
