Reply to: What are you doing for the Easter weekend?

[Pogle]

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..

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

So hopefully Sat afternoon.

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.

Hopefully playing / setup the new toy vu+ duo.. to replace my current sky setup

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.

Ooooh, just had a look at that - an alternative to the Hawkmoor - looks lovely!

Have you or anyone been to both and can compare?

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!

Not buying the egg then?

Thanks for asking. At Pater's small farm in Sussex, part of the time.

Thanks for asking.

Hopefully get off arse and do 30-40 bike miles tomorrow.
Parkrun Saturday - my first in four weeks, so not expecting much.
Sunday lunch on Sunday - not worked out what yet, but quite fancying Delia's beef Wellington. Either that or MaccyD's.

Got loads of work to do for ClientB so probably will spend much of the rest of the weekend working

Thanks for asking..

Bit of cycling, a lot of golf, quite a few

Out for a steak at Goodman on Saturday evening

Thanks for asking, have a good one yourself. I'm not too sure what I'll be doing apart from the fact that there may well be some alcohol involved at some point, actually there will be as on Sunday I'm off to an Irish breakfast which starts at 11 and ends sometime in the evening and I know involves 18 year old Irish Whisky. I do know that there will be no glass topped tables in action this weekend although there is the slight likelihood of escapades with German Bernd (so called because he's basically German and called Bernd) which may, or may not, involve 2 barmaids, a roll of sticky tape and a bowl of vanilla pudding. We'll see
