Parents & Eating

You need wait no longer as its Wednesday and so time for me to update this blog.
There were like four podcasts of BOOM! this week which put a bounce in my step, a dance in my chair and a spring in my well you get the message, there is also now a website for BOOM! its at www.boomination.com feel free to go have a look at what the great and mighty Chuckles has done.
Last Wednesday evening I went to the movies, to see Predators, I had really liked the original and liked the vs. Aliens ones so was looking forward to an entertaining movie. And was bitterly disappointed, its corny, predictable and stayed, not at all good. But that’s my humble opinion, you may enjoy it, if you’re bran dead and easily entertained.
Saturday saw my mum and step father descend upon us. As you will no doubt remember, especially as I am reminding you here, it was my best friends birthday last week, so Mum & Johnny had come to see him, as well as P, Milo and me of course!!!! Though I suspect in the order. It was of course fantastic to see them as I do enjoy the times that they visit. Johnny took P and I to Costco so as we could get all the things we wanted to and be able to get them home without the usual broken shoulders from the heavy bags. We then went to look at Best Buy (is that one or two words?) I wanted to look at the cameras and P wanted to look at the food processor. The staff discount scheme for CPW use to be really good but I don’t think much of the new one at all, although P did get his food processor, Johnny bought one as well. But it was an enjoyable afternoon I have to say, well I don’t have to but will do anyway.
In the evening we all, well apart from Milo who wouldn’t be allowed to come, jumped on the boat 
and headed to the O2 as Dave had decided he wanted to go to Gaucho for dinner. A jolly good choice it was as well, I have to say. The wine was rather nice, though I made a mess of the order, I originally didn’t look at the menu and ordered a bottle, it turned out to be rather too expensive so when the waiter came back P bravely (next to my wimp like self) said he had changed his mind and chose a different one. The food as always, was really nice and I had a lovely evening with people its great to be with, very nice end to the day it was.

The rest of the day P and I just relaxed and chilled which was actually rather nice as not often I just sit and relax.
Monday lunch I met a friend for lunch at the restaurant (eating again, why do I put on
weight???) at the Portrait Gallery. He was like 20 minutes late, terrible and tardy. But when we eventually sat down the view is breath taking its lovely (I must take P there as he would love it) and the service is great. They had a nice set menu and the food was really nice. I really would recommend the place, its delightful.

That my friends is for this week, my ramblings have come to a stop. See you next week xx
