Mothers Day and Papperdelles, Arundel in the Snow,Paint workshops & Arundel Networking Group.

Good Morning

from 

Arundel Eccentrics

If you are a Mum

How was your Mothers Day?

Happy, I hope.

Our lovely Jay is in California these days.

He's a menswear designer.

Lives in Laguna CA

Poor him, its a tough life, but someone has to do it. Ha Ha

Well, even all those miles away he didn't forget it was Mothers Day here in the UK

and contacted one of our favourite Arundel Restaurants,

Pappardelles in Arundel High Street

  and paid for a meal for us.

One of the reasons why its one of our favourite places..............

My husband Nass, is, 

although he would argue 

to the contrary,

 a true romantic.

Not that we always celebrate Valentines, 

but some years we do.

On one occasion, our favourite restaurant, 

Papperdelle's, in Arundel High Street

 was completely booked solid. 

The restaurant is now owned by Clive, 

Bruno's son, and has spread 

beautifully to the lovely 

Osteria downstairs.

In those days, it was just the upstairs.

Which is still going strong, I might add

and where we will have my belated

Mothers Day treat later in the week..... 

 It's beautiful,very Italian, 

fairly small,

 gorgeously intimate,

and it booked up on Valentines, very quickly.

On this special evening,

Nass had a quiet word with Bruno, 

who was a friend of his.

They lugged a small table down the stairs

and parked it next to the bench right in the middle

of Arundel High Street. 

There we sat, complete with 

candles, wine, and waitress.

I felt a little self conscious to start,

but a couple of glasses of Italian wine

quickly saw off those inhibitions. Ha Ha 

We were  well wrapped up 

against the cold, of course.

It was

a memorable evening and 

I'm not saying they would do it again,

but it shows the lengths some people will 

go to in order to please a customer hey?

Thanks Jay...

Jay and his lovely missus

and Jay and Nass

apart from one being a Spurs and one

 being an Arsenal supporter, they are great mates.

We will be using the voucher later in the week as for last night we'd already 

arranged dinner with our neighbours, also great friends.

It is actually the perfect arrangement.

They cooked and brought it through the

 back gate and we all ate in our kitchen,

as our table is bigger.

Arundel in the Snow

We woke to snow here in Arundel this morning.

Its still snowing now.

Arundel is a beautiful place anyway,

but looks magical in the snow.

This isn't actually today...its called "artistic licence" LOL

our little house on the hill....ha ha

I ran a few workshops last week.

What delightful people come along to these days.

We worked and chatted about everything under the sun as we painted and distressed the day away.
