Hats off to Rachel McDowell for (finally!) making it down to the big southern smoke all the way from Manchester, to sit with me at CCL for the day during treatment – now that is a jolly good effort. Very good to catch up in a much more leisurely fashion that is usually possible – when you're tethered to a chemo stand there's nowhere else to go!
And cheers for the mug ('I'd rather be drinking Gin & Tonic' – yes, that's pretty much true, especially on a Tuesday day time in CCL..) and v nice candle, those boutiquey shops up in posh Manch have got some tres good stuff.
And then had a Cambridge-y evening as well, as had dinner with Vicki & Lou at the – very nice – Rock & Rose in Kew. Excellent pear cocktail and the best Asian starter I've had in a very long time – would def go there again.
Check out the photo of the two old cougars leering away at some unsuspecting young stud muffin, getting changed in his first floor flat opposite the restaurant, little knowing that two old bats were drooling over his naked torso (and more..)
Next time I'll choose the seat that faces out into the road…
