Saturday was a pain in the ass and a joy too. Public transport thwarted us at every turn and we ended up changing tube lines 4 times to get to Hammersmith from Camden. Still, I bought a nice new earring and a pot of eyeshadow which is the wrong colour. I also found a very nice top to go underneath my pinstripe wasp which I shall have to find an opportunity to wear. Always tempted to wear one to a wedding (we've got two coming up this Spring) but I don't want the resulting cleavage to outdo the bride...
Dinner at the Gate was brief (we were late) but very nice. I had a root vegetable and chick pea tagine with pomegranite and couscous tabbaloueh, and some feta cheese and lentil fritters. Yummy, if a little heavy on the cinnamon. Gid had some sort of yummy aubergine thing on a bed of purple sprouting broccoli which was also excellent (how rare to be able to steal other people's dinner).
Henry Rollins was excellent and had me rocking back and forth in my seat with laughter from virtually the minute he came on stage. He apologised for the result of the US election and then went into an indepth analysis of Bush mis-speak: "Spacial entrepreneurs" anyone? Three hours later he stoppped, and had only had one sip of water the whole time. I was thirsty for him!
Someone at work has found a knitting pattern for dolls of Henry Rollins and Joey Ramone in a book called "Stitch and Bitch Nation". He, I need to make a cuddle Henry, that would be amusing!
