Wetherspoons options

[Nemesis]

Have you tried some of their aussie meals?

What, Wetherspoons do kangaroo steaks?

They could do a good line in squirrel rotisserie maybe - that would be a good option....

Was McDonalds lunch today. Smokehouse burger. They lied, there was no smokehouse, and no meat smoker, it was just a plastic sauce. I feel conned.

Subsidised client rates?

IR35 alert

I see your IR35 alert and raise you a contractor surcharge.

Go out for a walk to your nearest supermarket, but a salad from there, eat it in your hotel room. Exercise + mildly healthier eating.


(tip: always carry a knife, fork & corkscrew in your luggage when you're working away from home)

The corkscrew being for the mental health?

I find contracting away mon-fri actually works quite well fitness wise. The repeating pattern and lack of options means going to the gym in the evening is a good way to pass the time. Or a run. It is also easy to stick to a small breakfast and healthy lunch. Evening meal in a restaurant is tempting but since finding my cholesterol was high, a simple dinner in the rented room/flat does instead. No drink in the week but IPA blowout Friday night. Result = I am slim and fit as a fiddle.

payasyougym.com is your friend.
Also using myfitnesspal app to track calories (mainly to help with the cholesterol, avoiding sat. fats)

Typical evening meal beans on toast, a fried egg, a lot of fruit and a few nuts. Or sarnies. Or a ready meal but only once a week.

Sadly I cannot hack annything remotely fishy, but I do like surf and turf so may well have that as an occasional treat.

Basically trying to avoid anything fried or microwaved salt laden ready meal.

May well have an occasional burger though, but lay off that evil blue gloopy sauce with the ropey onion rings......

Then you may want to try eating somewhere else in a wetherspoons as the vast majority of the food is straight from the freezer to the microwave.
