Got those stayed up late on a schoolnight blues....

I'm currently maintaining a comfortable level of hangover in the office, thanks to the ever-lovely frankie_ecap and her over-tall paramour. I treked over to Fife last night, (well, 75 miles hardly counts as a trek, but you know what I mean) and demolished a huge amount of lasagne and cake, as well as more than my share of three bottles of wine (one of which was a gorgeous magnum of something or another). I also got to pass on Frankie's belated bithday present, which was greeted with ecstatic squeals and a serious assualt on people's ankles.

Allin all, a very pleasant meal, which turned into a very pleasant, rambling after dinner conversation which only eneded when we looked at our watches and realised that it was indeed 2.a.m.

I did sleep very well (country air and all) and K did make me porridge this morning (not quite up to the Millennium in Grosvenor Square's standards, due to the salt issue, but damm fine indeed.

Made it into the office just after 10, and I may do some work this afternoon. Possibly.

I'm glad I've booked into a yoga class at 5, otherwise the gym wouldn't see me today, although I'm toying with the idea of going over at lunchtime for a shower and a sauna...

Mmmm porridge. I just had some for lunch.

I have a sudden craving for chocolate and Irn Bru. Luckily I know how to banish this craving.

And there's another vending machine upstairs if the one on this floor isn't working...

*supplies you with change for the rest of the week, in case of aftershock cravings*

Chocolate and Irn Bru, well-known diabetic medications.

We had a lovely time too. I think. I can't precisely remember.

Wedding was great but cold. Much-anticipated meeting was good but insufficient time / opportunity for scurrilous gossip. I'm sure the time will come.

Well that was a narrow escape for me then! Still, much better to be the subject of gossip than the perpetator, methinks...

There's only one thing worse than being talked about, and that's not being talked about.
