Back to the UK after 50 years

And speaking of Rowntree - a local lad made good.

We had a very nice shared lunch at Mannion & Co with some interesting drinks

That night my wife was under the weather and didn't want an evening meal so I decided to try a Five Guys Burger. We had been walking past their various outlets for a number of years and never been inside and I should have maintained that practice. I average about one takeaway burger a year or two. On the plus side there were free peanuts in their shells and 'endless' drink top-ups - even though half the dispensers were empty.

Better than a McDonald's - not a high bar to reach - but not much better. The bun was very blah and the meat pretty tasteless.
