Does Derek Dare?

We've quickly learned that "our" Derek has a very healthy appetite, he is the ying to Darrell's culinary yang, where seconds are now de rigueur and leftover recipes  somewhat redundant these days.

However, he isn't, in any way, greedy, simply appreciative and thankful of a meat and two veg regime with the occasional pudding, if there is one, this we've put down to his days on the road looking for his long lost "family", bless him.

So, when he saw this banner outside the local Churchill retirement complex, up the road, naturally, his curiosity was piqued as he's also very fond of eating alfresco.

He first mission was to first establish where said "patio" might be .......

...... and then ascertain whether this was a strictly by invitation event or a simply rock up as you are casual type affair? 

I've suggested that he might just about get away with it, if he was careful to stay on the periphery of things and not draw attention to himself by the amount of picnic comestibles on his plate, (less is more), but, as this was most probably an attempt at luring potential residents in (at exorbitant prices may I add), should he be pounced upon by someone official looking with a clipboard, he should apologise profusely, saying he was just passing and hadn't realised, looking around him, that he was obviously far too young to be even considered as a prospective investor, but, would tell his nan ........ and then sidle way as subtly as possible, taking his plate with him!  What are we like?
