Christmas lunching

We met up with Ewan and Heather on Sunday for our traditional Christmas lunch. The food was great at the Anchor Line although the service became slower as the quite large restaurant got busier. This wouldn’t have been a problem, except that the start time for lunch had been changed so I had already pushed back the booking time for the pub, when the young folks would be joining us. Luckily my heroes Chanel and Davie came to the rescue; they secured the table at All Bar One for us until we arrived. Thank goodness they did, because it was busy and there were ten of us to be seated. We got the table I had requested on the ground floor beside the Christmas tree and it was all very festive. Jennifer and Ryan get on so well with Ally, Cat, Davie and Chanel. Of course we missed Andrew, who had not yet arrived home from London for the holidays, and Jamie and Kerry in New Zealand. It was a great afternoon and evening. 
Since then I have wrapped all of the Christmas presents and this afternoon I baked gluten free, low fodmap brownies for our Boxing Day guests, and sticky toffee puddings for New Year’s Day dinner. The food is all organised for Christmas Day so we are ready to party.
