Firstly, as mentioned on my post the other day, pictures of my new piece of bedroom furniture:
A narrow dress table with 5 draws!
I now have a proper home for my gym clothes
Back to the topic of weddings then.
I’ve been catching up with Pirates of the Caribbean tonight. I love the films so much but haven’t watched them in ages, so the new film coming out in a few weeks seemed like a good excuse to watch them. There are also so many good quotes from the movie, and this one seemed fairly appropriate for the current week’s events:
“I love weddings, drinks all around!”
Friday.
As we all know, yesterday was the big Royal Wedding Day. I was called in to work and therefore missed most of it, but I wasn’t really too fussed about it. On saying that, I did think that Kate looked beautiful and that they make a good couple.
I was happier about receiving double pay for my shift to be honest .
For dinner, Gary and I went to Nando’s for the first time and had a nice evening
We both ordered 5 Chicken wings, with sides of fries and coleslaw. Although the chicken was really tasty, (with a sort of BBQ flavour) there wasn’t really very much chicken on the wing. Next time we both agreed we would opt for something else.
The atmosphere in the restaurant was fun and their service makes for an interesting evening dining out.
Go to the counter to order (giving your table number) and pay.
Collect the sauces and dressings you fancy and any
cutlery you need.
As neither of us had been, we didn’t realise the way they serve is slightly different, instead of waiters taking your order at a table, you order at the till. Interesting!
I was very impressed with desert! I ordered a mango sorbet. It was absolutely delicious. So fruity, refreshing and light. Love, love, love. Note to self: try sorbet more often!
Saturday.
After all the wedding frenzy from the past 24 hours, today was your average Saturday at work. After swapping my normal 9-5 with somebody at work, I should add ‘reluctantly’ swapping, I finished work at 7pm. Mum and Dad were out for the evening so the majority of the evening has been spent alone, oh but I did have Captain Jack Sparrow to keep me company for some of it!
I can hear my bed calling my name. Tomorrow I am going to the gym in the morning with my dad. I haven’t been to the gym on a Sunday for a while now so it will be interesting to see how it goes.
What did you think of the Royal Wedding on Friday?
