after lunch
Friday, February 4th, 2011 02:29 pmSo for lunch I went to the office canteen for the first time in over a year. In fact, if I’ve eaten there more than twice in the past five years, including today, I don’t recall.
Certainly in all that time the management of the canteen has changed at least once, maybe twice. I think an entire license has been granted and expired since I went last. Anyway, the current mob seems to have it under control and I have to say that my fish and chips with a portion of baked beans were very tasty and properly done. I followed that up with a “Massimo” latté with an extra shot in the vague hope that the extra caffeine might in some way counteract the carbs and stop me from drifting off. I’m not sure it’s working.
This evening I am leaving work as soon after 4pm as I can safely manage.![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ellefurtle is off to some comedy show with belle_fille1982, so I am taking the opportunity to wander up to Forbidden Planet with fencingsculptor to look at the shinies. I expect we will decamp to The Angel on St Giles’ High Street for cider and a natter thereafter. I’m not sure there will be time to sweep across the West End to meet up with the ladies before they go to see their show, but who knows?
When I get home, provided I’m not too soused, I shall have to zip around the kitchen to give it the final once-over before Furtle Ma and Furtle Pa turn up tomorrow. I’m not quite sure what tomorrow holds; unexpected gardening, I surmise.
Sunday, late afternoon or early evening I shall be swanning off to Lewisham to seecolonel_maxim and watching the Super Bowl. That means crashing there and sloping back home sometime on Monday morning. Just as well I booked a day off!
