Action-packed for me, though very different from what an action-packed weekend used to be when I look through my old reports on here!
Friday - early dinner at Inamo on St James on Regent St. Interactive touch-controlled tables for ordering, playing games and changing lighting and image on tables was all very fun. Ordering system broke down and after 45 mins they came and re-took oute order with a pen and paper. Food was passable.
Then popped round the corner to the Prince of Wales Theatre for Mama Mia. As dreadful as I expected but the missus enjoyed it, which was the objective, after all. Sat through it sober too, ahead of first competitive footy match of the season.
Saturday - did some work in the morning before covering every blade of grass on the pitch in the afternoon. Coasting at 2-0 with ten minutes to go, at which point some of our younger players switched off. Drew 2-2.
Saturday night - Nomad cinema in Queens Park for 'The Third Man'. Was hammering down when we got there and feared a wash out, but the rain cleared and it was really good, if achingly middle class. Couple of beers after.
Sunday - headed down London Bridge way to see the 'Wow Gorillas' including:
Much fun! Nice lunch and then watched Man U Chelsea, where Torres' miss just eclisped Arsenal's defending for the weekend's most tragic laugh!
Sunday night watched 'Fire in Babylon' about the Windies cricket team - great film/documentary. Viv Richards is a legend!
