Diwana and Green Park Sunday 3rd April 2016 Chie and I fancied curry for lunch, so we went down to Euston to eat at Diwana, then carried on down to Green Park for a bit of a wander around. | ||
First Negroni of Spring Tuesday 5th April 2016 Was light enough, and pleasant weather enough, for a Negroni out in the garden when I got back from work. | Oliveto and More Top Hat Pictures Friday 8th April 2016 Chie had a late afternoon dentist appointment near my office today, so afterwards we decided to go for dinner at Oliveo, followed by gelato at Olivogelo. After that, back at home, since I'd bought a Winchester shirt I tried on my morning suit and top hat again. | Abergavenny Saturday 9th April 2016 Got the train to Abergavenny in the morning, and enjoyed a lovely family gathering in the afternoon. |
Kilpeck Sunday 10th April 2016 Spent the day with Vera and Robin, went out to Kilpeck for lunch and a look at the very uniue church. | Baudes and Fashion at Royal Ascot Tuesday 12th April 2016 Rather enjoyed a bottle of Frederic Magnien's Chambolle Musigny Baudes 2003. Also spent some of the evening reading Fashion at Royal Ascot, which I'd just received a copy of. | |
Afternoon Off Thursday 14th April 2016 Didn't feel like working this afternoon, and it was a nice day, so I took the afternoon off to look around for hats for Royal Ascot with Chie, then afterwards had a late afternoon / early evening drink at my club before going to pick Erika up from nursery. | Saturday Saturday 16th April 2016 Spent the morning and early afternoon in and around home - did a bit of gardening, and made a mushroom risotto for lunch. Then later on in the afternoon went for a bit of an aimless wander round St. James's. | Zoo and Garden Sunday 17th April 2016 Took Erika to the zoo for the morning / early afternoon, did a bit of shopping in Camden, then spent the remainder of the afternoon in the garden back at home. |
Rob's Mum's Birthday. Or Was it Rob's Birthday?
