Don't panic Mr Mainwairing!

Don't panic!! I'm fine!! It was an interesting couple of days, but I've survived, not killed anyone (although I was sorely tempted on Friday, but that's a story for later!) and am still smiling!! But a big thanks to those of you who have sent me hugs, funnies and pictures of George Clooney & Brad Pitt to cheer me up.... I went out and got pretty hammered last night - any stress was pretty much gone after the 2nd glass. And by the time we staggered home after the 5th or 6th glass I was laughing about the whole week!!

I was helpless with laughter at one point in the evening. Stephen went up to the bar and came back holding a pint of rat's piss lite and a sample bottle...oh, I wish I'd had a camera! It was actually a mini carafe so he could top up my glass. I don't know why they didn't just give him a fresh glass - maybe they figured that I needed the amusement factor!!

Oh, and for those that asked - I'm pretty sure that it really was a "dude in a dress" in the elevator...the broad shoulders and bandy legs all added to the impression!!

We're going round to Paul's tonight. He's apparently a great curry chef so, as we was tormenting me with tales of the curry (and bacon sandwiches) he was eating whilst back in the UK, he offered to whip up a little spicy something for us tonight. I thought we shouldn't go empty handed so we've just been round all our favourite shops picking up naan bread, poppadoms, chutney and ingredients so I can (try and) make vegetable samosa's. I will let you know how I get on!! The recipe makes about 20 so they had better be good.....
