Well, arrived back on London around lunch time, after visiting my parents for a relaxing Christmas. A nice rest from the mad rush that is my so-called life in London. (Who was it who said, “Never mistake a busy life for a life”?)
\nSaying that, no sooner had I swallowed my lunch, I was on the tube into central London to celebrate Steve’s birthday with the usual suspects. We met up with the usual suspects at Marble Arch for a spot of ice-skating. I must admit, ice-skating isn’t my forte, but after fifteen minutes of finding my feet, I was circling the rink away from the barrier. I’m not saying it was pretty to look at or anything, but it was actually ice-skating rather than dragging myself around the rink by pulling on the railings.
\nA quick jaunt down Oxford Street was necessary to purchase a birthday present for the birthday boy and then we then headed down to the Texas Embassy near Trafalgar Square for dinner. The food was OK, but a little disappointing given the location and surroundings. However, the company was good so a good time was had regardless.
\nThe evening was finished off around Sarah’s place with “Who wants to be a Millionaire” and “Lord of the Rings Trivial Pursuit” board games. Kudos to Sarah for organising a fun day. I guess there’s more to life than being with friends, but being with friends is an important part of life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
