Day 278: Some days just...

Day 278: ...don't always go to plan

But today, I mean that in a good way. There is much house work, indoors and outdoors, to be done. Importantly, the outdoor stuff includes oiling the deck, mowing the lawn, weeding and digging away at the garden and today's primary task, clearing the gutters...

Along the way, there were several interesting things that happened. Nice colours to start, a bit of cleaning up got done; friend and I decided to go to visit a South Bank establishment which serves beer cocktails and pizzas...sounded like the right way to end a busy day. 

Well, the pizzas, it turned out, are served in another part of the building so we opted for the chips which were the perfect accompaniment to the beer--a porter with nutmeg and other ingredients. Rather pleasant. 

At the point of 'dessert', the kindly waitperson enquired as to whether we were going to 'the show'? We weren't no, but we looked at what was on...and we were so glad we did. Spamalot had its last show on in 40 minutes and tickets were heavily discounted. Suddenly, yes, we had a show to get to.

There be nutmeg

It was very funny, suitably Pythonesque and clever references to today's grand final...which the bunnies won (which is not my team but, a good win). 

It was a grand day (and night), completely unplanned, really.
