We have been to one of Gordon Ramsey’s Restaurants for our 4th year wedding anniversary. We found it to be nice, but not fantastic….although we wished we could have afforded a Michelin star one.

We have also checked out the Cambridge vs Oxford boat race, which is a big national event, and it happened to start just down the road, where we stayed with my cousins, Putney Bridge. We watched the start, all of 2 seconds of it and then went back to the pub to watch the rest of the 16 minutes. It was bit of a non event watching it live, but an excuse to go enjoy the spring sunshine.
We have had to live through the G20 protests/riots, which were hyped up by the media. Because Jam and my companies were in central London we were told to dress down in mufti. It was quite cool that morning when I switched the telly on to see that Obama was arriving at 10 Downing Street just down the road. Nothing really serious happened, just a bunch of people angry at the greedy banks for stuffing other peoples lives up, which is fair enough.

The hockey season has ended and our team managed 2nd in the league, so promotion for next year…although I didn’t manage to contribute any more than 5 games this season! We went to my clubs end of season hockey ball, and it was one of the most awesomest nights ever. One thing I love over here is that when the brits get dressed up for an event, they do it properly. Black tie actually meant proper black bow tie and dinner suits. Had to spend a bit but everyone looked fantastic!
Now we’re looking forward to Wales for Easter.
