The Night Before The Burns Night

[Thursday 22nd January]
Bit of a stressful day at the office today, nothing seemed to be working properly. By about 5:30 I'd had enough, and decided to sneak out "early".

I still had a bit more shopping to do for tomorrow's Burns Night, and so for a change from our usual Sainsbury's I headed over in the direction of Belgravia with the intention of going to the Waitrose there. En route I decided I could do with a bit of a quiet sit down first to calm down after my crappy day, and my feet led me to the Grenadier. It was crowded as ever in that tiny little pub, but despite all the bustle I found by 15 minutes or so there to be very calming, exactly what was needed.

I then went to Waitrose, got the remaining things I needed for tomorrow, and walked back home from there.

Met Chie back at the flat who had decided she wanted to eat out this evening - and I certainly didn't want to be making any mess in the kitchen given the scale of catering that would be required for tomorrow. So we went to a little Indian restaurant near where we live that we'd been to once before. Nothing particularly to write home about, but it was OK.
