I wanted to write an open thank you to our hosts Basil and Sybil for a wonderful evening despite their service staff Manuel. Overall, we had a fabulous evening and the food was divine. It would have been a lot better if Manuel had kept his head out of my date’s breasts but that is something I guess I should expected from a Portuguese waiter.

Sybil (Imogen Miller Porter), you were delightful. Beauty and grace. And you were so forgiving with Basil’s constant hiccups over dinner, over than that brief moment you slapped him silly and…well…I won’t mention where the carp ended up. Your hospitality made us feel welcomed and longing for more. Literally, the period for our main course I could have used more of your wit and insight rather than having to make conversation with the couples at our table.

Basil( Benedict Holme). Well played. You remind me of a younger John Cleese, in every action. I’m so sorry Sybil caught you with that lottery ticket. I do hope you were able to walk the morning after. I have to admit that at times your humour caught me off guard and I apologize for snorting, it’s very unrefined for a dinner party. Mostly though I was glad you were there to add some slap stick to the night’s event. It made for a better overall experience and again I missed seeing more of you before the main course, though you made up for it.

Manuel (Leigh Kelly). I don’t really see a point of writing to you as you won’t understand me anyway. Your hamster is a rat. Face it, don’t be so sensitive about it. Though your bread roll and table tops high kicks were a natural phenomenon, your plating style deserves a little more refinement, as does your attention to detail. You can’t always get away with back rubs to solve the fact you tossed buns in people’s faces – and I’m not talking dinner rolls.

I thank you again for the wonderful evening. I can’t wait to go back and I’ve encouraged all my friends to book a reservation with you here. I know you will be leaving town April 26th, most likely do to the IRS, but let me know when you’ll return; I can’t wait for another night out with you and your wife.

Sincerely,

Rene Samulewitsch
