    I've been told I need to finalise the holiday bookings and tidy the garden before playing with new toys.

    So hopefully Sat afternoon.

      thanks for the interest.

      been off a few days and Mrs V has been on a girly trip with a mate.

      So its been pretty chilled. Apart from breaking my chain (fixed yesterday) its been good.

      Today - clear the pigsty I call a home office. Too many toys not enough drawers.
      Tomorrow - Gardening Mrs V has expressed an interest so she is getting gloves.
      Saturday - as I'm told!
      Sunday - In laws over for Roast.
      Monday - nothing hopefully!
      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

        Have you or anyone been to both and can compare?
        I've been to the Hawksmoor but this is my first visit to Goodman - I've been told it's at least as good, which given the standards set by the Hawksmoor is encouraging!

        I'll let you know what the comparison is like after the weekend..

          Hopefully if the weather is good, not seen the forecast, then I will be out somewhere on the bike.

          Oops I actually tried to claim for tomorrow on my timesheet this morning because I thought Easter was next weekend. Spotted by my approver.

            Hehe, filthy contractors trying to scam extra cash!

            Done that myself a couple of times. On one memorable occasion I managed to enter 11 into the box where I should have put 1.

            Agency have finally updated their self billing portal to recognise bank holidays and sanity check entries so it can't happen anymore.

                Keep me posted, I got the dates for the egg members day out in cloggers and given that most of the michelin star chefs who use them normally turn out at these events there should be some good food there.

                  Oh I was at the one in the City last week. The service was not good!
                  The one in Canary Wharf was MUCH better.

                  However the Scottish fillet was amazing
                  I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
