caddymanUp, awake and only partially knackered. The remains of the Polish Coke bottle is restoring the old fabric as I type. I could go and make a cup of coffee, but well, meh...
Last night's trip to the Café Sol went well, I think. I enjoyed it anyway. Good to see![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bibliogirl despite her travails, rotwang who managed to postpone a trip to Halifax, jfs, caffeine_fairy, chomper99 and romney, plus Liz & Chris, DT, Maisie and Henry sans LJ.
It's a long time since I've been to Café Sol and I'd rather forgotten how good the food is, and reasonably priced, too. A note to the wise, however: unless you haven't eaqten for a month, don't start off with the nachos and follow them up with fajitas. Nothing wrong with them per se you understand, but unless you have the stomach capacity of an aircraft hanger it will all get a bit silly once the Dos Equis starts soaking in.
On the other hand, watchingrotwang nonchanlantly scoffing a raw chilli and then reaching critical meltdown was something I wish I'd captured on film.
As a rule of thumb it is never a good idea to turn the same colour as your food, whatever you are eating.
Henry,romney and I retired to the Landor for a swift pint after the meal, we three being the only comparative locals - or rather the only locals fully capable of continuing.
A good time all round, I think. If I have another birthday we'll have to do it again.
