[Saturday 8th August]
Headed to Abergavenny this afternoon, we were going to be spending the weekend there on an extended celebration of Vera's 90th birthday.

Went for dinner in the evening at the Walnut Tree. It has been a "famous" restaurant near Abergavenny since the 1960s. Despite having been through somes changes of management in recent years, I'd still been wanting to go for a while, and was really pleased we finally made it.

The food was very good - well thought out, seasonal, and the vegetarian options were a refreshing break from the norm. Started with deep fried courgette flowers, for main had a globe artichoke with a pea and mint puree, and for dessert a hazelnut meringue with summer fruits. All done to a very high standard.

Oh look - entry number 2000!
