Penned

Steadily busy today, ably handled by Sara and Nancie who have far too good a time together judging by the raucous cackling as I walked in. This afternoon three Thai people came. They ordered a complete mixture of stuff - asparagus soup, cappuccino, scone, carrot cake and tea. When we delivered it to their table outside they placed everything in front of them and produced two cameras. We photographed them smiling with their food. Twenty minutes later one of the ladies came in to request the soup recipe, and to ask searching questions about the scones which, she commented, were "better than Harrods". We manhandled her to the Visitors Book and stood over her while she put her comment in writing. We weren't going to let that pass.
