It was my 47th Wedding Anniversary so I decided
to take Valerie to Canterbury as she wanted a leather jacket and I knew the
exact place the photo would tell you why I chose it.
On the way down Valerie says I know a better place to park so I followed her direction and needless to say we got lost but that was not the problem we were followed by a Police car. When we eventually did park the Police, which happened to be in an armed response vehicle, said to me did you know you turn the wrong way up a pedestrian area and then ignore a further sign which said do not turn right. The only answer I could give was No I did not, I then asked if was to be ticketed or receive a slap on the wrist thankfully it was the latter. The Coppers were very pleasant but it seems the reason they were following me was that as I have a Big Estate they were concerned that I could have been a terrorist, which could use my car as weapon. I found this quite reassuring as it proves our Police are on the Ball. So be warned do not drive up Canterbury Pedestrian Precinct the wrong way you may get shot.

| Can not see me going through that door |
Any way after the excitement I bought the Leather Jacket for
Val and treated her to a meal, Canterbury has a multitude of Café and
Restaurants so we tried La Trappiste, which I
have to admit, was a disappointment. I had Pigeon breasts as a starter which I
have several times but never in a restaurant, this was tasty but tough. The
main course was chicken breast wrapped in Bacon with a beer Wine sauce once
again tasty but tough and the vegetables were over cooked so we did not eat
them, would we go again NO. At £40 for 2 coffees, 1 starter, 2 mains it was not
that expensive, maybe TUESDAY WAS THE WRONG DAY
