A boring afternoon and evening in London


Well yesterday, we arrived at Mike’s office and he left me alone to go into meetings.

Offices are quite smart, but apparently the phones keep going on the blink. Mike doesn’t have a desk as he usually works from home so he sits wherever someone else isn’t. As Tom told me from his trip, no one has an office all to themselves, but even though it is ‘open plan’ it is quite quiet.

Left about 6:00pm so we could go to our hotel. Mike then went and left me again so he could see the film Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street starring Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter. Mike said it was good and lived up to the critic’s description of ‘lashings of ketchup’. Mike did look a bit green when he came back. I think he shouldn’t have had is Penne Fresco dinner before he saw the film, although given his look he probably wouldn’t have wanted it either.
