If we can, we always have the last meal of our stay at Nate 'n' Al's in Beverly Hills and although it was a long haul to get there from Santa Monica - what with Uber and all that, we thought we'd make the effort. We ordered up so big that Nigel could not finish the steak fries. ALERT Nigel could NOT finish the steak fries. This will haunt him now for weeks to come. Many years ago, he was very sick with pneumonia resulting in quite a few weeks off work. As he was recovering I took him out for a drive and as we were driving past Burger Wisconsin - he said he really really fancied a cheeseburger. In mere minutes, voila, it was sitting in front of him but alas he could only manage half of it. Anyone that knows him, will know that he must have been seriously ill indeed to allow half a burger to go back untouched. Many weeks later, I woke in the middle of the night to find him restlessly tossing and turning in bed. Thinking he was having a recurring bout of the bronchials I asked him " Are you ok?" " Yes he said but I'm quite hungry and I keep thinking about that half burger I left in Wisconsin"
