Can you remember it and how old was you ?

I don´t mean lunch in cafe´s but a genuine restaurant posh meal type thing.

Can you also remember your 1st romantic meal ?

I remember going to the pictures on my first date at fourteen.

Aftewards he took me to an indian restaurant by the bus station at Bognor and ordered egg and chips twice.

He ate his egg with his knife.

It kind of set the tone for my social life.

Yes, a restaurant called 'Verbanellas' in Notting Hill (long before it became 'fashionable'.) I was 19 and he was 36. I had avocado with a plain oil/vinegar dressing for a starter - I had never heard of it, let alone eat it, and I loved it.

Still love avocadoes - the boyfriend went and is now possibly dead (sad, because he was a nice bloke and asked me to marry him.)

Happy memories though <3

When I was 16 my boyfriend now my OH was in the RN and used to eating in restaurants, he took me to a small local restaurant called Corbetts cafe and we had steak, egg, mushrooms and chips. I had never had steak or mushrooms, it was not what my Mum would cook. :-)
