Weekend was ace wasn't it? We started with a lunchtime pint with work at a nice pub called The Drum, then a few drinks just the wife and me. Saturday we headed to The Whole World Cafe, and what do you know it was actually open this time? We were a bit previous on our other two visits. It's a nice place, not sure they're quite up to speed yet, but salads and coffee and juice were good, and it's nice decor and atmosphere. We also took a stroll round the town and down to the beach, and yes there were people sunbathing and swimming.
Saturday night we just sat in The Providence, which is OK. I much prefer The Ship, but at least the Provi is quiet enough to get a table and for us to be able to hear Clare's softly spoken dad speaking. I think we put the world to rights, I'm not entirely sure.
Sunday, up early, heading off to Twickenham. Engineering works on the trains meant we talked the aforementioned pa-in-law into taking us to Ashford in the car, so as to save an hour off our total journey. That didn't really work out quite so well as we'd have liked, we were stuck in the jam for over an hour, missed our train, and Jim must have been regretting helping us out. We did eventually get to Ashford though, some people were held up on the motorway for five or six hours...
The rugby was absolutely brilliant, a high scoring game with most of the tries being scored down our end too. It really makes a difference being there on a sunny day, in great seats. Good work Andy on procuring the tickets.
The journey home was a bit slower, but still not too bad, so we extended the weekend a bit with a meal at Escondido, which was fantastic as ever.

If it wasn't a Monday night, I might go to this, 11th June at Hammersmith Odeon, it's Motley Crue. In fact a Tuesday night wouldn't be good either, nor any day from Sunday back round to Friday again are out. If they move this gig to a Saturday, and it doesn't sell out and I can get downstairs tickets, then I would go. As one last request, if it could be moved to Folkestone, that would be fab.
Bizarrely I'm about to become a shareholder in Hammersmith Apollo, as a company I have shares in, from a long way back when I traded popex away has just bought it, and Kentish Town Forum too. How much sway do you think my shareholding gets me, in terms of getting the date moved?
Misty this morning, but it's going to be a hot hot hot weekend. Haven't done much this week except watch TV, but yesterday I made an experimental cassoulet that was good, and we watched It's Not Easy Being Green and caught up on House again. The green show has very annoying people on it, excitable and loaded new agers, hmm... Tonight we're off to Keppel's, mostly because there's a fancy dress murder mystery dinner going on in The Grand upstairs, and we want to see the standard of the dressing up. Then Saturday, out and about again including lunch in The Whole World Cafe on The Old High Street, hopefully. It opened last weekend, but each time we've been along they've been not quite officially open, fingers crossed for Saturday as it looks really nice.
Sunday, we're off to Twickenham, which will be ace also!
Weekends are good.

That's what I wrote on the blog, should I go into more detail here? The decor of the place is really nice, all light wood and the ubiquitious art for sale on the wall. Somehow I didn't realise it's in the space left by the old Wishing Well tea rooms, and they've made a feature of the old wishing well, by putting a really cool window in the floor.
The coffee is great, and so are the complementary biscuits (Escondido, this is the one lesson you have still to learn, we need biscuits or chocolates with the coffee, not just boiled sweets with the bill...).
The juice was freshly squeezed, though it was made with a juicer like this, which doesn't seem the most efficient way. We have one of those, and you'd have to peel the oranges first and then cut it up into chunks before you can put it in. It tastes fine, but we want this place to survive, so we want it to profit, but we don't want them to have to put their prices up.
Salads were good, we had a mix of past and pesto, and lentils and all sorts, good stuff. The menu did seem a bit limited though, I hope that's down to them being new, what they want is to have a big cauldron of chilli on the go all the time, that's what I'd do.
