We spend the day blitzing the garden, with the help of our neighbour Des and the McCarthy's. It's so nice I fire up the barbie for the first time *ever* in London Town! I've only been here the 13 years, so not too long then. To celebrate I re-create the ultimate beef burgers as a late afternoon smackerel.
Seeing as kayosaurus and mikeledocus are up for the weekend, me and the anas go out on a date. We don't book, naturally, but still manage to get a riverside table at The Depot thanks to an ace waiter who gives us the cover as the people who booked were late - yay!
The ana's go for crispy duck and watercress salad followed by a huge muddyfunstering chargrilled cote de boeuf with chips & bearnaise, and an Eton Mess style meringue confection. I had serano ham, green beans, poached egg and pork scratchings to start, chagrilled chicken and chorizo salad with new potatoes and stewed rhubarb and panne cotta. It was freaking marvellous!
Meanwhile on Planet Milo...
After hearty day attacking the plants with his rake and pouring water on everything, clearly the mynci is hungry because he has a dinner of five (count 'em) of last night's spicy meatballs. The gannet.
