Il Ritorno di Pat in Patria.




Pat came back yesterday evening from an eleven day visit to Candy. On the 16th it looked as though the reappearance of the ash-cloud might have prevented  her going. And it seemed almost certain that flights would be cancelled the following day when Dave was due to come over to keep me out of mischief. Fortunately ‘God blew’ and like the armada it ‘was scattered’. Despite the crap weather Dave and I had a good time: having lunch in Ascoli the Wednesday before last - an excellent tagliatelle with a duck sugo, followed by a sea-food lunch in Cupra Marittima at La Perla’s beach restaurant on Thursday. And, unlike the other days Dave was here, it was warm,  and the sun shone in a cloudless sky. 
   The Friday before Pat went to England we had dinner with Jane and David at Le Selve agriturismo in Piane di Comunanza. Excellent food with some Sardinian dishes. This Wednesday had a meal with Jane and David at Le Logge. David found his steak rather tough! Eva managed to escape from the house and go walkabout when we came back for coffee. She eventually made her way home when she felt like it.
