I was a dinner guest tonight! I think Limey was the last person who cooked for me, back in January 2014.
Chicken casserole (okay, maybe that could have looked a bit cat-sicky, but casserole does generally) new potatoes, carrots, mashed sweet potatoes and cabbage.
And for dessert (they even made me dessert!) fresh strawberries and raspberries with proper posh vanilla ice cream. You know, the speckly kind.
Before that I had a long walk with the lady of the house, and a good chat about life in general. She also suffers from depression, but is still managing to work part time as a music teacher and freelance instrustor for her instrument. Then another good chat back at the house with her husband, who loves words like me. And a relaxed general talk over dinner with the two of them and their son who's back from Uni where he's studying Sports Science in a city I know tolerably well.
I felt like a proper grown-up.
They're good people.
