Sunday shopping
I awoke naturally on sunday morning and auer a quick drive I headed into town to take care of my christmas shopping. After a couple of hours darting between shops I was done and felt that I deserved something for my being unusually organised so I arranged to meet Fanj for lunch. As there was some waiting involved I popped into nearys for a quick pint where I learnt the sad news of Gary Speed. My time spent contemplating this was cut short btu the arrival of a gaggle of women who ordered themselves a round of irish coffees and proceeded to complain about the price of parking in various suburbs of dublin.
Fortunately Fanj arrived before long and I was able to depart. We hit gourmet burger to take advantage of their starter and burger for a tenner offer.
Feeling well fed we headed off to meet up with a friend of Fanjs to watch liverpool take on man city which as a liverpool follower I found to be a throughly delightful way to spend the afternoon. Though the most memorable incident of the afternoon was the following exchange between fanj and some girl he knew.
-I heard you had a kid. How'd that go?
-Ah grand.
Which is the most understated description of childbirth I've come across.
Once the match was done I made my excuses and headed home for some tipsy cooking.
