London trip,
the sunday wind-down. Had dinner and bath, just chilling out before going to bed. Had steak and jackets for din dins, with some argentinian red wine. very nice. Argentinian because of tevez at west ham, thinking it may somehow do good for the team. Worth a try.
Had the latest london piss up with work people on friday, went from baker street around the circle and district lines to aldgate east for brick lane, via gloucester road (randomness) and embankment. Had a few drinks on a boat just near cleopatra's needle, really nice and relaxed in there, with lovely view of the thames by night, the eye and westminster in the near distance.
Funnily enough, went to brick lane with the express intent of getting a curry in, and managed that....fairly easily. I've only been up there in the day, heading for the old jewish bagel shop at the top before now, so it was a little weird seeing the brick lane that most people see of an evening. It was like bar street in Faliraki, with all the little chappies out on the street tempting you in with offers of free beer and discounts. Not quite the same, but comparable in my head at least.
Plodding through my s205 OU course. On the second part of the third book, and quite surprisingly I'm starting to enjoy the organic side of chemistry. Wouldn't necessarily see that coming, as it's the most beastish and difficult part of chemistry, by most people's accounts. The sheer volume that you need to know and understand to be any good is ridiculous. Makes it a little daunting.
Nighty night
