Thought we would start with foody things. Just finished writing latest book so went out for dinner to celebrate - to the Harbour-master, Aberaeron overlooking the bobbing masts of small boats in the harbour.

2 courses for £27, plus a great bottle of Muscadet wine (I love the smell of Muscadet). So, we made our choices then were presented with fresh bread, olive oil and a nutty-seedy mix for dipping while we waited. Oh yes, then a dish of home-made nachos - wow, so light and crisp - with tangy guacomole and tomato sauces. Mouthwatering and a starter in itself!

          

Scallops and pancetta with mint puree in a shell tastes as good as it looks, and Les' choice was a creamy crab mix with pickled cucumber - again, looking good. Mains were Les' favourite of sea-bream and mine a more unusual stuffed aubergine. So, a tasty meal in beautiful surroundings, staff friendly and exceptionally well-trained, and all a perfect celebration meal.

What is the latest meal out you have enjoyed? let me know any in this part of Wales to try for ourselves.
