KARBOOM...

Not only landed my first direct Swiss client, but doubled the scope of work.

Have a Swiss banana....

I'm really pleased because I went to the Pølservogn yesterday after thinking it's was more pork sausages I'd previously got bored with but yes, they have ost pølser, aka käsewurst, aka cheese sausage!

Thinner than the German variety, but longer, so swings and roundabouts really.

Plus a massive dollop of the weakest-tasting mustard I've ever had and fried onion that to be honest had been fried to crispy chippy-like batter scraps. Bin for those two. And a nice piece of bread, Danish bread is nice, 28DKr, cheaper than Leeds German Market...

Really pleased that rates are so high here, pound is so shiit and yet stuff isn't that dear!

Yes, it has been noted that you are so fooking dim you don't know what day of the week it is!

When weekdays seem like weekends... just trust me.

I only got the notification today. But I've been thinking it's Monday all day.

Why would that affect your Swiss contract? It was business as usual here on Monday.

FTFY

Burst my bubbled what not.

Good point - yesterday was 'Tag der Deutschen Einheit' - So the working week has just begun here.

Perch probably, the Swiss do have the most boring fish dishes in Europe.

To an extent. He upgraded from the rump to the fillet the next time we went.

LondonManc will now pay for his son's new gotten expensive tastes.

[LondonManc]

Your son's got expensive tastes.

Haha, no, it was a special treat for him. His sister was on a pamper day with his mum so I took him out for a stomach pampering

I took my son to the Hawksmoor in Manchester. He loved it. I think they were more impressed that a 15-year-old lad wanted his steak medium rare.

You've never dined at Hawksmoor then...

Do you include the Slovakians in that?

[cojak]

That's nothing special for London, but expensive for pretty much anywhere else in the country. I'm assuming €300-400/night? Just because you earn a lot doesn't stop that being quite a lot, in the same way that if you're a millionaire, £50 for a steak is still fairly expensive regardless of the fact you can easily afford it.
