So on the Saturday after that, Richard had his birthday drinks and Loz had a cheese and wine evening - all lots of fun. I ended up at the Rectory in Mile End, and so went back to Tooting to collect my belongings and came back to the Rectory on the Monday. Tuesday I had lunch with work people (Helen's 40th birthday) at a lovely restaurant in Wimbledon, and then went out for drinks in the evening. By the time I'd turned up to help Sara move on Wednesday, people at work were thinking I'd never leave - words like "Something about being beaten off with a sharp stick" and the much more direct "Go away!" definitely came up... Thursday evening I was entertained by Rob and Chris, and Rob makes a mean Pisco Sours. Friday night involved dinner with Liz and Van and a couple of drinks with Nina, and a brief party (brief for me) in the front room of the rectory. Saturday brought with it Dan's birthday party, which came accompanied by lots of drinks and a surprise meeting with Rob's friend Ruth. Sunday involved a roast dinner with the Everitts, the Graingers, Guy and Caroline, a surprise victory over France in the 6 nations then a visit to Cafe Cairo with Rowena and a barbecue back at hers. Phew!
Tonight I've dragged a few people to the Dover Castle for a drink or two and tomorrow morning I get up early and fly to Singapore! I promise to blog more descriptively from then on!
