A bit of the good life
We went away for the weekend to see some friends and celebrate a 40th birthday (not mine, I’m glad to say). It was a brilliant weekend, and any time in which the six of us weren’t eating wonderful food, drinking or laughing (or all three) was spent in our friends’ new hot tub. Just before we went out for the best curry I’ve ever had in my life, we were lounging in the hot tub, drinking champagne. The following exchange occurred:
So, are you OK?
[Huge grin on his face, glass of bubbly in hand] Weeelll, I’ve been worse….
No kidding. I think we’ve all been worse, and it was pretty nice to spend a weekend being much better. It made me realise how lucky I am; not just to know someone who owns a hot tub, but to have such a nice bunch of people to spend time with.

Mr. D: Yes, I have---I just haven't had any time to write about it yet! It's every bit as good as you said, and you were dead right about 'Music for Gong Gong'. Anyone looking through my office window recently at my bouncing around madly in my chair with headphones on may have wondered what I was on as a consequence
I'm planning on writing about it soon.
Thanks for the recommendation!

Sounds like it was a memorable weekend, bsag...
Have you had a chance to listen to Osibisa yet? Or should my ears be ringing with oaths of eternal damnation for recommending the purchase of rubbish?----- Osibisa (Equal stress on all syllables) Great sound.
Never mind the wekend, where the perfect curry?
