Jerry arrived exactly on time, had met Jerry on two previous occasions a few years back so as he pulled up I recognized him.
Jerry looks no more than 55 -60 years old but in fact he is a year older than I !!
After a coffee at my brothers house we set off for lunch. Jerry has lived in this part of England almost all of his life so well familiar with the area. He drove to , just outside Margate and ended up at a country pub, so quintessentially English, i forget the name of this village but I shall always remember my last day in Margate. Our lunch was first class, they obviously have an experienced chef. Pretty busy eatery, all English diners and very pleasant waiting staff. We talked a great deal and enjoyed each other's company.
It rained all day practically but Jerry had his brolly available.
We took a drive back going through Herne Bay, a picturesque seaside town, I recalled visiting about 50 years ago !!
Jerry is fully conversant with the history surrounding this part of England, very informative.
We drove back and promised to meet up on his next visit to Cyprus. It was by far my best and most enjoyable day since arriving in the UK, thank you Jerry, you are a star !!
