Eventual Meet

So I have many times pointed out how difficult - despite the fact that we are busy, but not abnormally so - how difficult it is to organise meeting up with friends at home. So having returned nearly three weeks ago, the Friday just gone was finally a mutually convenient time for a few of us to meet up.

There was a spanner thrown in the works by that most traditional of enemies, the cement mixer. This spanner - to continue the metaphor - fell off a bridge onto a train in Oxshott. Despite making light of this dangerous and serious event, it also meant that my journey home was delayed by about half an hour due to the knock-on effect on all of the Waterloo lines.

On eventually making my way home, we ended up heading out for a meal. This was good, as I had managed to organise a date only, not actually any plans. We ended up having an extremely long meal (Chinese, since you ask) which was very good, and some enjoyable conversation, commentary and discussions. All in all, a good evening!
