Yeah, it’s the Mexican place. I had lunch with my then girlfriend there about 9 months ago and it wasn’t bad at all but not really exceptionally good. I kind of like Mexican food in Britain, it’s a whole lot different from authentic Mexican food lol but still very nice.

Well I’m prepared to bet it was a lot better value for money than we got. I wish we had gone there instead. The takeaway on the way home wasn’t cheap, either!!

I wasn’t expecting it to be cheap, but I certainly wasn’t expecting to pay £20 for a small piece of fish and a bottle of water. Not unless Jesus came back and conjured it up for me with a crusty roll … Anyhow - we’ll go to Chiquitos next time and I’ll let you know what I think :)

On april 20th I’d recommend just staying in your hotel room and watching the start of the new series of Ashes to Ashes.
That’s what I’ll be doing even though it is my birthday!

Is it a new series? I thought it was re-runs! Damn - I missed the last 2 of the first series so I was hoping to catch up with them and Virgin bloody media have stopped the TV Choice function. It might as well not be there because I’m f**cked if I’m going to start paying for it when I’ve been with them since NTL first started out :mad:
Happy Birthday in advance, though!! :)

Yup, new series :) They’ll probably show the last series again on BBC3, thats what they do with Dr Who and other popular stuff so you can catch up.

Good point, I’ll keep an eye out. I’m not too worried as long as I see the last one.
Strange how the show seems to be so popular with women, but blokes don’t seem to get it at all! I’ll have to find some way of disguising the remote control whilst I’m watching it :D

so, we took hooch’s advice and went to see ‘wicked’. The boyfriend is not a fan of musical but he loved it. The theatre alone is just worth going there. yesterday we went to soho to eat at andrew edmund’s which was great, lovely small restaurant with great, affordable food. We also went to crobar, and we loved it. great music, friendly people and good whiskey, what ore can you ask for :-)

so the husband is not a fan of music.
I’m still getting used to this, although we’ve been together for nearly 6 years, I still feel like we’re starting all over again.

When I went we were up in the heavens but the tickets were only £15 - we bought them only about a week in advance.

we bought them at the TKTS and it was 26 each. It was a monday evening, and the place wasn’t full, so we could move from high up on the balcony to about halfway down. The stage was fantastic. You should really go and see this
