Quick trip to Waddesdon Manor to see the Christmas decorations.  Usual good standard, but Steve was begining to find them a bit the same.  Rosemary liked them.

Tried to eat at the Manor, but the resturant was full, so went to the Five Arrows.  Very busy when we arrived, but we were found somewhere to eat.  We ate of the fixed price menu, £15.50 for two courses.  Not a great choice, and we both felt was not very good value for the price.

Steve started with a fillet beef salad with croutons.  Beef cooked very nicely.  The main course was venison bangers and mash.  The sausages where very strong venison flavour, while the mash was very creamy and flaovourless. 

Rosemary amazingly had a fish main course which had changed from the salmon on the menu and a starter of a vegetarian tart, which was more puff pastry than vegetable, but with a good pickle.  She was not overly impressed.
