Lying Like Lilos

This is the latest blog posting to date. It is 0050 and we are just back from having a night out on the town. Well I drove so there was not much alcohol consumption but still good fun. Tonight we meet up with Danny and went to 'The Hobbit' pub. It is an English pub, and there were a number of English accents there as well. We all had amazing burgers made from lean Aberdeen Angus coos! Stuart I know you will love it. They do a Jamaican Jerk burger that I am sure you would like as well as many other variations. The great thing was you could choose, rather than having chips, you could have shredded raw carrot. At least some points towards your five a day!

Following being completely stuffed, the first bar we tried at about 2230 was closed and so we went to quite a fancy, European looking place, on Westheimer near Kirby. We had to queue at the door for no apparent reason, but eventually got let in. They sold cocktails, as well as millions of whiskies, from America and Scotland. As I was driving I had water, and Di followed suit, but Danny had a cocktail that was just pure alcohol. It was awful!

Both of us are feeling tired after what turned out to be busy day. Di had a little late start, however, after some coffee outside we went to the gym and did quite a lengthy workout. To reward us for our effort we went for a pedicure, see pictures of the excruciating pain/tickling we endured. I did a dry run on toe nail colour for the wedding.

In the afternoon, we sat by the pool enjoying the spectacular weather. It did however, hit 102F on my car thermometer! I blew up my new lilo and we took turns floating around. The pool was incredible warm, much warmer than last weekend.

Poor Di has now joined me in being covered in mosquito bites, as there were unfortunately lots at dinner!
