Kings Lynn & the week
Sep. 5th, 2003 04:12 pmHow did it come to be Friday already, then?
Kings Lynn was nice. We did mostly bugger all, which suited us fine. Wandered round the town a bit on Friday, bought some books, went to a v good restaurant called The Riverside Restaurant, which even catered for vegans without demur. Gosh. Spent Saturday mostly in bed, reading & dozing & chatting & suchlike. Though we did emerge for meals (breakfast in hotel, lunch from corner shop, dinner we actually went properly outside for). Sunday we went for a nice long walk up the Wash, which would have been more fun had I been wearing shoes that still had something approaching a sole. As then my feet/knees might not have given way somewhat halfway through. Ah well.
And we mostly avoided transport problems with the powercut on the way there on Thursday (got to London Bridge OK, had to go aboveground there, but got on a bus to Kings X without trouble). Hurrah.
Monday
shadow_jess & I went to the Science Museum, which was cool. Many buttons to press! And pretty things like the maths models, & the Difference Engine. And Launch Pad, which I am impressed to discover they let adults into. I thought you had to be little to be allowed in. We were supposed to be going to a lunchtime Prom at the V&A featuring cellos, but it was sold out (hadn't even occurred to either of us to buy tickets, whoops). So pub, back to the Science Museum, feet wore out, more pub, more different pub (spotting a theme yet?), & then pizza/wine/sillyfilms. All top stuff.

Round
marnameow's on Tuesday evening, to eat pizza & drink wine & talk nonsense with her & the rather unwell
sbp. Poor Sean. V nice to see Marna - not seen her in *ages*. Sorry, love, I've been a bit crap recently. Round
kitty_goth's Wednesday night, which was also v nice, yay. And a little visit to london.pm yesterday before going home, being cooked curry by Pete, & watching Labyrinth. David Bowie's trousers really are *very* tight in that, it's a little disturbing.
I have had a surprisingly productive week at work. This worries me rather, as it is unusual, or at least, I have been feeling distinctly unproductive the last few weeks. I have been Ticking Things Off Lists. I have some thoughts about work, but I think I'll post them separately.
