Brian's Bits

By Kanyl

The ins and outs of it.

      For "day" - read/hear "year" in this, here just coz I like it
For years the four of us would go for a meal at each Birthday, nicely spread out thus January - May - August - November.
       August was my turn, Alice was May.  As a rule I've been a bit sort of
"I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure." Happy to sit back and let A. N. Other choose, but recently (and T B H I'd forgotten how close we were to The Day) I remarked it was a long time since we'd been here.
       SO - here we were.  Whereby hangs a tale:-
We were wondering if it had once had another name?
(Here's the tale) 
When I first arrived in Penrith, all those 46 or so years ago; I heard the lads talking about what my ears decided was "Pass a Part out"; my immediate thought?  "What a great/apt name for a Car spares establishment."  It was only after we actually drove past it one day that I saw it was a restaurant called the "Passepartout"- and it was not this one.
