Friday evening, having had what seemed a long week (we had a serious deadline to get everything ready by close of business Friday. It was nice to head out of the office with perfect blue skies and the sun shining. I was supposed to meet Dusan and hed to Emily & Colin's for dinner but Dusan had a migrain so had to bail.
Made my way to Tooting and sat and sipped Champagne cocktails enjoying the last of the sunshine. Emily cooked a lovely fresh pasta and chocolate pudding was great to see Colin again and have a good catch up. Before I knew it the time it was approaching midnight and the evening was over. Sign of a good night when it goes so fast.
Meanwhile, Tuesday evening I took my boss for a thank you dinner at the Ivy. I have to confess, its still my favourite restaurant in London and definitely a place to go when you want to treat someone or have a visitor in from over seas.
We enjoyed a fabulous four courses and some nice drinks too pairing our choices with our dishes with the aid of our waitress.
Why is it that the weather was near perfect all week and then come Saturday it clouds over and gets really humid. I woke yesterday and found it was an airless day. Too hot to sit on the sofa, I would literally be dripping in perspiration if I did. So to escape the heat I went off to the gym. May as well burn some calories as well as escaping the humidity. Something is paying off as seem to be down 10 kilos on the weight I was at the start of the year. I was so grateful that the train from London bridge was air-conditioned. By the time I left the gym, the cloud had broken and let in some air. It was still a barmy 21 degree's at 1AM despite it having rained.
Oh well, it's only June, plenty more chance for a long hot summer.
