Sorry to have been a bit derelict in my duties Boris. Glad to hear chef has been able to cope without my kind assistance.
Been a bit poorly - touch of this fluey bug thats going around, but feeling a bit more like my stripey self today.

And dont you worrry about Sticks and his licence. I spoke to the clerk to the licences only the other day and he told me how impressed he was with this new high class drinking establishment. Said the Manageress was a bit of a tyrant but has a heart of gold and as for the customers - they couldnt be beaten. It is one of the most well run places he has come across. Always changing its menu and offering just what customers want.
Could we have Tia Maria in our coffees as well pretty please.
