#1: I'm going to tell you that I weigh 74kg, which is 0.5kg less than last week. BUT.... actually I was 74kg yesterday morning. I was [ahem] a bit more this morning, as I went for beer and curry with some ship folk yesterday evening so I thought I'd show myself in a more favourable light and give you yesterday's weight rather than today's. I did think about going to the gym this afternoon to work some of it off, but I had a very very nice haircut this morning which I don't want to ruin just yet. Priorities, you know...
Speaking of ship, beer and curry - what a fine evening! Conversation, beer and food flowed abundantly all evening - sometimes with these things you can't be sure if you'll manage a conversation with everyone, but everyone was really on form, and it was great to meet a couple of new people too - for those interested in such things, the motley crew this time was: me, marmot, iGeek, Moth, ShadoK, ken and DaveC. Mighty fine people one and all.
#2: I haven't done a July culture vulture report (I'm trying to do one cultural thing a month between now and when I leave London, as there are so many things I've still not seen despite living here for 14 years - iGeek and marmot were horrified that I've never been to the British Museum!). However, fret not. I was going to go today (as other weekends have been taken up with essays and visits to parents etc), but the place I'd chosen doesn't open on Saturdays (fortunately I found that out before turning up there and finding it closed). So I'm going tomorrow instead. I have August's planned already, so that'll be two lots of culture for the price of one. You lucky people.
