Stratford Upon Avon (revisited)

It wasn't all that long ago since Clare and I went to the Butterfly Farm in Stratford but we found ourselves there again today with friends.
There didn't seem to be as many butterflies as last time but there were some different types.  There were also a lot more birds (cockatiels and parrots).  Clare was disappointed that there was no food in the dispensers to feed the fish.

Afterwards we headed into Stratford and after a quick tour of the shops headed for Cafe Pasta for something to eat. I went for pizza with goats cheese, onions and peppers. It was lovely.  We had a 2 for one voucher (for up to 6 people) but when the bill came only one meal had been deducted.  When we queried it the manageress told us that the voucher meant that only one meal was free for every table of six!  So much for buy one get one free.  In our case it should have read buy three and get the fourth free. She did however, as a goodwill gesture, deduct the second meal.

All in all a good day out although I had hoped to have a quick look around the new revamped theatre but unfortunately we didn't have the time.   I'll have to wait until next time.
