Many happy returns OC. Here's a cake from Iceland.

Coincidentally, I had chocolate fudge cake with vanilla ice cream for dessert at my birthday lunch today at Bella Vita. You know me far too well, Eccs!

To my dear OC!

I actually got the date of OC's birthday wrong this year and so my card and gift are LATE! I tried to phone him from Woolwich high street yesterday morning to wish him a HB, but didn't have his landline on my mobile - I have just this minute found a mobile number for him in my contacts list, but not sure it's his current one, and for some reason didn't see it yesterday.

Anyway I am so sorry OC

you should get your gift today and your card tomorrow, and I hope you had a lovely day

Eccles - I love the Iceland cake

This is me all forlorn for my clunker

And some more thanks for the later but very welcome birthday wishes...............

I took Nancy and Jeff to lunch at Bella Vita on my birthday. We kicked off with pre-lunch drinks - coca cola for Jeff, Canada Dry for me and a bacardi and coke for Nancy. Then we had our first course - we were ever so boring, we all had scampi with a small salad and tartare sauce. Collectively we were more adventurous with our main couses - Jeff had Tagliatelle Affumicato - pan fried smoked salmon with asparagus cooked in a garlic white wine sauce. Nancy had Tagliatelle Alfredo - egg pasta cooked in a creamy sauce with parma ham and mushrooms - she couldn't finish it; too much scampi earlier quoth she. I had risotto con gamberoni - shelled prawns and cherry tomatoes in the risotto. I also had a side dish of oven roasted new potatoes which I invited N&J to share but they didn't so I scoffed the lot. We washed that down with a bottle of house white. We all had dessert - tiramisu for Jeff, chocolate fudge cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for me, and either lemon cheesecake or banoffi pie for Nancy, I forget which. We finished with a pot of tea for Nancy, cappuccino for me and a latte for Jeff. I found that eating for free on your birthday applied to only the main course but I was happy with that and left behind £120 including a tip.

I'm even later to the party! The meal sounds wonderful - I've never heard of Tagliatelle Affumicato but it sounds fab and II shall have a go at cooking it though I suspect it won't be a patch on the Bella Vita's version. Anyway I hope you had a great day.
