Double date with Shell & Andrew
W00t! Shell & Phil got their own entrees of escargots. I'm being a wonderful gastronomic influence ;) I had the beef fillet (rare of course) with green peppercorn sauce, Phil and Shell had lamb shanks with ratatouille and mash, Andrew had chicken fillet wrapped in bacon in cream sauce. No wine this time, had to drive home from the train station and then onto Leach's. The lemon meringue pie didn't agree with me though. Had to go trotting to the loo...

Kat's Hen's night
Well Leach and I arrived at wagamama to join them for La Cita. Drinks and dancing yea... sooo... good. I had Pisco Sour, Passion for Pisco and La Cita Iced Tea, Al and I got jipped, our ones didn't taste like Leach's or Angi's. :(
I want more La Cita Iced Tea!!!

Have to go to work in 40 minutes. Sigh, want some more food... oooh I have slices of cake, the sago and various flavoured slices from Helen's cake shop. Mmmm... Taro & Sago cake, mmmm... okay I'm gonna get one now.
Gotta remember to call grandma after I get back from work tonight. Gaaaahh... it's her 80th today.
