That Luncheonly Feeling
October 08, 2006

We went to The Greyhound, Battersea High Street, for lunch today. Geographically I was doubtful as to whether this was a good idea or not. Gastronomically, it was...

I don't know if it was sitting on the table next to Mark's* wife, child and parents or not, but there was a fantastic family vibe to this place [they weren't there when we were seated, so I suspect it was natural!].

As 50% of our table had already opted for the Lamb Shank, I went for the beef. I could have asked for it to be cooked a bit longer I suppose but it was a bit disappointing. The Lamb, on the other hand, looked awesome! The clean plates confirmed this. The Pork Belly pudding that passed by also looked worthwhile... This isn't really a beef [ha ha!], just a poor decision on my part. We'll be going back again I'm sure. Next time we'll be taking reinforcements, to make sure I have every base covered. That way I can try everything!

My replacement MOO prints arrived, on Friday, which was very efficient I must say. I'm not over convinced I'm comfortable with the dimensions they've chosen to work with [28 x 70mm] but I guess I'll learn to live with them as the actual print quality is very good. I'd quite like to be able to align stuff to the right rather than the left, flush to the "buddy icon", and add a few more characters per line [I can't fit "steve.wilde@" before the domain name for this site] on a single line... Other than that? Moo's the word.

We went to see Jane Bussman's, Bussmans's Holiday on Friday. Which was better than I expected it to be. Well... that's a bit of an unfair remark as I wasn't entirely sure what it would be in the first place! Jane's kind of a Spalding Gray in heels, I guess, and has a great knack of making you laugh and feel uncomfortable about it at the same time.

I've just been planning to go to Art London tomorrow until Sam reminded me that we're supposed to be waiting in for the "Royal Mail" to deliver my new phone... Which nobody is able to predict the delivery time of, so will probably involve me waiting in all day...

I'm currently suffering the guilty pleasure of really enjoying The Feeling
