Curry and Mouse Poo

TOP curry yesterday, went to Tayyab near Whitechapel, very good, queued right out the door, which makes a change from all the hustling you get on Brick Lane... had a few pints before in The Ten Bells, also well recommended.Note to self: Never, ever g...

This is my new weblog...

...which I am being forced to write so my boyfriend can read what I have been doing and what I am thinking at all times. This weekend was fairly unproductive. We did make the effort to go shopping but gave up in despair after an hour or two. Too m...

Bluewater + Drinking

Going to Bluewater today (definitely not Lakeside, ever again) and also meeting Richy for some quiet drinks, possibly at the Shakespeare.

Angela Griffin

She played Fiona in Coronation Street and is now in Holby City... she appeared to be stalking ME around Bluewater shopping centre in Kent on Saturday (10th February)... She followed us into Calvin Klein, Diesel, and also Pret a Manger....

Some shopping

Just went to Bluewater to try and get a telly for the kitchen (but no-one wanted to swap, hoho) and a new coat for Clare. BUT, the telly we had seen online didn't look nearly as good in the flesh, and all the others that did were more than we were th...

Went to Bluewater

Fairly quiet weekend apart from going to Bluewater.Friday, got back from FOWA fairly late. Got the high speed again, didn't seem quite as fast this time, but at least I timed it right. Thursday I just missed the fast train to Folkestone, had to wait ...

A good day in Bluewater

Went to Bluewater for the day yesterday, didn't get any christmas shopping but did have a good day. Coffee, lunch at Nando's, more coffee, bit of browsing, and got our tea from the John Lewis foodhall, lovely. None of the problems getting out of the ...

Day of cleaning

Well mostly cleaning, partly hiding down here in the study pretending to clean. I was up early this morning, and have achieved quite a lot. Tidied the leaves from the back garden, washed and despidered the front door, porch, and bin shed, more some d...

Cold, wet feet

In London again today for work. Walked here to Clerkenwell from St Pancras, only ten or fifteen minutes, but the weather is terrible here, so I got wet and my feet are still not dry...Lovely weekend, Kez and Dez visiting Friday night so we got a curr...

Had a good lunch in Cullin's Yard yesterday

Mum and Dad have been here for the weekend, very nice. After a night in playing Scrabble on Friday night, we tried to go to Bluewater on Saturday morning. Did not check the traffic reports, so missed this news of a pedestrian on the M20 being hit by ...

Very successful day

After last weekend's failed trip to Bluewater, we'd decided to try again go again next month, with the in-laws in tow to keep an eye on Harry while we tried to by a bed. But then, a bit spur of the moment, we thought we'd go today, just Clare, Harry ...

Something particularly good about La Tasca

I don't have puddings myself, but I've always thought the best pudding idea is the assiete - a taste of several puddings, on one plate. I don't understand why everywhere doesn't offer this, and why everyone who could eat it doesn't order this. Next b...

Harry still ill

He's been up and down today, he woke us up several times in the night but seemed to be just a bit sad each time. We left him with Granny and went to IKEA and Bluewater. Granny phoned while we were there to say he had a raised temperature again, so we...
