Norwich

Blasdale Home Posted on November 26, 2005 by SteveDecember 27, 2017

Worked at home most of the week.  It has been cold all week, with very little precipitation.  Friday was meant to be really stormy, but in the end did not affect us.  Believe the west country was badly caught out, with many children having to stay at school for the night. 

I  started my course if vaccinations, in the belief i might be going to Saudi.  Visited the nurse twice in the week, going there again next week.

The weekend we drove to Norwich, and stayed with my father and Ann.  Went to Norwich to see a film (The persistant gardener), set in Kenya.   Bit of a problem getting there, traffic was bad, missed the  proposed start of the film, but it actually was not showing at that time.  Went around the shops, got caught by shopping center evacuations, and long queues in the coffee shops.  Back to the cinema to watch the film.

Richard

Blasdale Home Posted on November 19, 2005 by SteveDecember 27, 2017

This weekend was gnerally cold and miserable.  We though had Richard Fowler and Vicki round for lunch.  Richard recently has returned to the village.

Selina and Graham turned up just as we were about to eat.  They eventually stayed, we did have rather a large rib of beef to get through.

Gutworm

Blasdale Home Posted on November 16, 2005 by SteveDecember 27, 2017

Today, went out for a drink with Mary and Ed.  Afterwards I went to the Bongo Club.  Some metal bands were playing.  The Bongo Club is on Holyrood road.  Walk down Cowgate towards the parliament.  The road changes in to Holyrood, and on the left is the Bongo Club.

Reasonable venue, but rather cold, probably because there were only 30 or so there.  I reckon I must have been the only paying person, all the rest were from the bands and hangers on.

Should have started at 9.00, but did not start till 10.  Three bands played, ending at 12.30.

The bands in order were, Turbyne, Sweet Zombie Jesus and then Gutworm.

Turbyne, were young, but actually quite a good band.  Think there were 5 in the line up.

Gutworm were the older band and definitely the best.  Noise and metal at its best  The other bands definitely looked up to them.  They should be playing in Rushden on the 25th November and the White Swan in High Wycombe on December 3rd.  Well worth a visit.

Mary Devine’s birthday

Blasdale Home Posted on November 15, 2005 by SteveDecember 27, 2017

Cold sunny day up north again.

Out to lunch at 12 with the team and others for lunch at the Cafe Royal.  We were celebrating a mile stone birthday for Mary Devine. 

Evening, a meal at the bar in the hotel, and then listened to one bang at Whistle Binkies.   Not as good as the Wednesday before, but original.

Petit Paris

Blasdale Home Posted on November 14, 2005 by SteveDecember 27, 2017

Another sunny, but cold day in Edinburgh.  My room looks towards Arthur’s Chair, and I saw the sun rise around the side of Duddingston Loch.  Times like this I wish I had my camera with me.

Petite Paris for the evening meal, not seen the waitress there for a while, must ask where she is.  Could be working in their other restaurant which opened this year.

Had a full meal:

  • Cream of Carrot Soup
  • White Sausage on mash and tarragon gravy
  • Creme Brulee
  • Pichet of Vin rouge
