A weekend of eating

After a number of months on very best behaviour, which saw me rejecting the majority of the invites that I got to go out and play in the past few months, we are being to ease back into real life while the build up to the wedding still has some way to go.

            On Friday night we went out to meet with Joyce and some friends that he had passing through Singapore, who he thought needed taking out for a few drinks to kick off their weekend. Thankfully, even though we were out to play, I had told Nick that if we left by nine then we ought to go and have a nice dinner, so at five to nine he came and informed me that the bill was paid and that he was ready to leave. I have it on good authority from those who stayed out later due to the lack of a dinner lure, that it turned into a pretty big night, and that things were still in full swing long after Nick and I returned home from dinner and put ourselves to bed. It could have been a whole lot worse!

Lunch with a view!

Saturday was another day of catching up with people that we haven’t seen in some time. Tommy was in town for the weekend, so we had a nice lunch by the seaside with him, Harriet and Jamie. Then following a quiet afternoon in the sun with Liv we met up with Mike and Tilly for dinner in a little restaurant tucked away just near our flat. For a small local restaurant it was absolutely fabulous, and very reasonably priced too, so that was quite a successful little Saturday night outing.

Finally, Sunday dawned bright and early as we had a brunch date with Nick, Jing and their cute little two year old Kate. Whilst we were both a little jaded, we managed to make it out for a lovey late breakfast at my all time favourite PS Café. After a good few hours of chatting and coffee drinking we officially ended our weekend (at around noon), returning home in the midst of a brewing storm. The rainy afternoon therefore passed in a glorious blur of writing wedding invites and baking scones.

Write, stuff, seal, stamp, repeat

The diet really does start again on Monday. And I most seriously mean it this time.
