Vero Waffle and Gelato

We don't usually do a brekkie run on a Monday but this week apart from being Easter Monday we had an errand to run in Aldershot. We did a search on Google and chose Vero Waffle and Gelato.


 This web site is pretty basic but a new one is starting soon. After the experience we had last Saturday we couldn't face a full English. Being Bank holiday it didn't open until 11am so we took a wander around a local shopping precinct for an hour or so. We were the first customers in Vero,s but others soon came in and it was soon quite busy. They didn't have any menus on the tables but all the waffle creations were displayed in a glass cabinet.



 We both went for the banana and caramel waffle which turned out to be a very good choice.



It was absolutely delicious.  A nice crispy waffle with caramel sauce, lots of cream and sliced banana topped with chocolate sauce. Hmm..! Could eat it all over again.

Being a nice day it was a very enjoyable drive to Aldershot. 

 We had to go through the tunnel, which Jan always gets quite excited about.




Roads weren't particularly busy and the countryside looked lovely.  Very yellow with all the rape seed.

Now for the real reason we went to Aldershot.  One of my dogs, Jake is finding it more and more difficult to walk very far.  His spirit is willing but his body is getting tired.  He is twelve years old and has several health issues.  So, after a successful bid on ebay we went to collect this:-


This caused quite a bit of amusement amongst my family but Jake is very happy with it. We tried it out for the first time today and he did very well until near the end of the walk when he tried to jump out. He was attached to a very short strap and nearly hung himself.  Will use his harness next time.

A very good walk was had by all. Jake seemed even more tired today when we got home than he usually is, must be all the excitement of a new toy. 

Maybe next week we will be ready to try another cooked breakfast, see you then............
