Proper Food

[Thursday 8th December]
Given the previous three day marathon of eating very badly, I was determined to have a day with some decent grub.

So, for lunch, I was determined to eat out. A colleague of mine very kindly agreed to come along with me, and together off we went to the other side of the station for an Indian meal. The quality was pretty good actually - I would definitely go again - the only slight minus point was that the portions seemed to be a little on the small side. In fairness I probably just thought this because I'd been half starved for three days, and it was lunch after all - probably "normal" people didn't require the amount of food I did on that occasion.

Dinner was another "proper meal" - I made a sort of vegetarian Lancashire hot pot, although no doubt it would be unrecognisable to any genuine residents of Lancashire. Anyway, I thought it was really good, and it was very comforting to have a full plate in front of me, that I knew it was "safe" to eat the entirety of.

I had to stay up a bit late - I had an international tele-conference at midnight (talking with the US and Europe). The conference itself was OK - albeit that we didn't seem to reach an agreement. It was a little frustrating afterwards though - I found it hard to go from "work mode" to "sleep mode" so didn't manage to get to sleep until nearly 3AM.
