He is indeed gorgeous and twinkly and generally lovely and I would be Envy, having never been there, but I am both excited and nervous about taking DC to the Manoir next week Grin.

I actually love him. Not for him, the siren call of cheap turkey and salty stock pots.

ManifestoMT · 05/06/2013 22:47

I do hope your excitement won't curb your appetite. Imagine the horror of guzzling down his creations in front of him!!!!

Don't forget to ask him to lick the dribbles of gravy (jus) from your chin

Can you ask him to do that TV series thing again (I was the person who watched it) where they took a group of young people and trained them in front of house stuff.

And update us on exactly what you ate.

Have you alerted him to the fact that you're going? Have you given him time to ready himself?

Enjoy!

I went a few years ago - it was gorgeous and so was the lovely Michel when he came round the restaurant to ask each table if they had enjoyed their evenings.

My mate cuts his hair (posh salon on Park Lane just a few metres down from Marble Arch). Next to the newsagents. Waa featured in the ES a few weeks ago due to the large numbers of Romanians that doss down outside during the night. He is lovely.

the poor mare probably sees more of him on telly than she does in real life if the article I read recently was anything to go by.. he is never at home, his work is his entire life

I would like to attend the wedding cos the food will not be a dried up beef spread sarnie.

So off to buy a hat and I just don't care how you word your invite regarding children or the wedding gift list.

squeakytoy · 05/06/2013 22:42

have you informed his wife Grin

ManifestoMT · 05/06/2013 22:40

He is so not.

Enjoy the scoffs though
