making the most of your day off

i did well on friday as i managed to cram lots into my day off. i experimented this week with staying up when i got home from work on thursday. i got a bit of tidying done and watched a bit of telly. i then had an afternoon nap before going to play pub poker. i came 2nd out of 30 which was ok (but i would've liked the prize money). when i got back, i was a bit drunk and tired so i managed to get an early night.

i managed to get up early on friday and i felt quite well rested, i went and joined the gym (i just need to make sure i go now). i then decided to go to borough market and have a look round as it was a nice day. i had possibly the best fish and chips i've ever had, really good batter, mmmmmmm. anyway, had a good look round, tasted some cheese, had a look at vinopolis (i think i might go wine tasting there in the future) i love borough market, it'll be nice to go down towards christmas time and get some treats.



after the market i had a walk by the river and went to have a look in the turbine hall at the new exibit. i'm not sure exactly what its supposed to be but i think it had something to do with immigration. there were lots of makeshift bunk beds with paperbacks in foreign languages (oh, and a big spider type creation complete with egg sac)

i finished my day with a game of poker as gary was supposed to be playing at the vic. i played in the £30 freezout but only lasted and hour and a half. i thought i played quite well but i got rivered with a pair of 9s and a pair of kings. if things had gone the other way i would've had a monster chip stack.

so, the end of the day, i went home a loser but cheered myself up when i got home by having a platter of parma ham and aged parmesan with a bottle of champagne whilst watching wanted on dvd.


a happy end to a good day
