Just one small limoncello Mr Creosote...

Playlist


Up and sucking music out of the ether...


Yes #NewMusicFriday once again...


Diary writing too...


Soon, it was breakfast time...



Took Anne to her Zumba then, to the Gym...


The view from the leg Press machine - another 1,000 completed...


And out...


Someone doesn't like the gym...


Home...

I did not do all the filing...


At 1:30, we drove to Jane & Bob's to give Jane her 60th birthday present - a prospective trip to Salzburg and The Sound of Music...

At 2, leaving Anne to chat, I was out and onto a bus to Haymarket...


Unlike yesterday, for some reason, I had completely forgotten to bring any headphones...

Luckily it was only a 10 minute trip to the Scots Guards Club where, in the garden at the back, the team had commenced celebrating chums Gary and Janine's upcoming birthdays on the 19th...

At 2:25, a five minute walk to La Casa for a late lunch...

Various starters enjoyed, this, mine...


The wine and Prosecco were flowing...


Mains arrived - both my opposite number, Craig and I went for the "Mixed Grill"...

Just as well a third of the plate was salad!


Top nosh all round - Christine, Gary and Bernie to my right...


Janine, Wendy, Willie and Ronnie to my left...



Yum...


The wine continued to flow...


...as did cocktails for J&W...



Sweets were partaken of - brulee cheesecake for Mr CBQ...


...and Happy Birthday was sung...


...and celebrated...


...as small be-candled cakes arrived...




...and were duly attended to...



Limoncello rounded things off...


2.5 hours after arriving, we made our way back to Haymarket...


...and spent a couple of hours in the Mad Hatter...


Another 2 hours later, with Bernie, Willie, Craig, Ronnie and Christine having departed, the final quartet of me, Gaz, Janine and Wendy returned to the Guards for nightcaps...


I left after a couple, Janine followed shortly afterwards, leaving Wendy and Gary heading into the night on the Jack Daniels...

A bus to the Zoo and pick up from Anne and I was home pre 9pm...

Was happy to send the note below to Prog Rock Willie - who had been very kindly bigging up my music and my podcasts to the others earlier tonight...

Good man...


Bed by 11, having already fallen asleep and dreamt I was already in my bed...

Highlight of the Day : Carousing...
