Goodbye Nick

I had a phone call this week from Stella who is the wedding co-ordinator for The Powdermills Hotel in Battle Sussex inviting me to the Sundial Restaurant Herstmonceux.

The party was to say farewell to Nick Walker the general manager who is emigrating to Australia. I have known Nick for many years, he has been a great manager and will be sorely missed.

After everyone had lost their money on the roulette and black jack tables followed by a magnificent meal, Stella under the guise of Ant and Deck put Nick and his wife through some ''Get me out of Here'' tasks.

A memorable evening was had by all. We all wish Nick and his family all the best for their new life down under.
