Memo to self: walking c 3 miles on uncertain surfaces on sprained ankle possibly not best idea ever. Wonder how mobile I'm going to be tomorrow?

Otherwise v civilised weekend, enhanced by ecstatic amounts of sun, good company and exquisite food. You take up Our Heroine recovering, joyfully hangover free ,from her wine-tasting adventure, and healthily walking to Newington to recover abandoned car. Do not go to Waitrose when hungry, quoth V: for it will destroy your bank balance. I broke this eleventh commandment however, and lo, he was right. But worse things happen than pan frying seabass in fennel butter, and fishcakes with a lemon cream sauce, plus colcannon, fresh green beans and cauliflower on the side, at 11 o clock of a Saturday night. Bizarre behaviour, yes ,but I didn't realise Superman Returns would go on till 10, when restaurants were at the turfing out stage and I was hungry enough to eat Andy's left kidney...

Sunday was still more Waitrose goodies, G & B cherry chocolate, a detour to the Virgin pool, and, dignity, cleanliness and footware recovered, dinner at David Banns with visiting German lesbian veggies. Where I had the most fabulous stuffed Portobello mushroom (some kind of nuts, with celeriac and potato, cooked to melting point in a mustardy sauce - delicious) and a share of three puds - fresh peach tarte tatin, choc pud and orange sorbet, and home made truffles with raspberry chocolate praline. Ah me. Anyone want to go back?

Ice ice ice ice!!

Pack it in ice (the ankle) and recline for hours. Let those cats wait on you for a change.

I've been thinking about going to David Banns for a while. I tried to convince Guy that it would be nice but the lack of dead things didn't appeal ;)
