And still we wait....

So another weekend comes and goes. Monday however has started well which hopefully points as all forward to a wonderful week ahead.

The sun is shining and the leaves on the trees are starting to brown off and fall from their twiggy perches, it's all so very autumnal and for me exciting too as it signal the start of the best season for all things Game. Great Venison & Pheasant to be had and loads of wonderful flavours to enjoy.

Well I'm guessing your all dying to know what I got up to at the weekend ?!?............NO............Good then I shall proceed....

Friday was lovely, had a nice night in with my lady. Little'un was off to Grandad's for a sleepover so we had some lovely food and some wine and some averna and some lemonchello and some whiskey and some..........nope that was it.

Saturday was a double DJ header affair kicking off at Mango for a short while to help start my good friends 40th birthday celebrations then over to Sakura until 2am to entertain the folks in VIP. Before that however spent a wonderful day with Bolger and Asbo starting off with lunch at Jamie's Italian before meeting up with a few other buddies and shooting some pool.

Finished Saturday off by heading back to Mango where the garden was at it's absolute best. Absolutely rammed full of fantastic people having a great time, testament to Kevin's chums and also to the old days of Mango weekends. Maybe the penny will drop and the vibe can continue......I doubt it somehow.

Sunday awoke with a stonker of a headache which was very disappointing because I was desperately trying not to make that happen, didn't really start to go away until I took a trip to the chinese supermarket and got some awareness food. Nothing like a good dose of MSG to get you going.

So that brings us up to today and like I mentioned it's been a good start. Sunny, traffic not too bad and McDonalds coffee all helping to get the minerals flowing ready for a days work then at 5pm I have been invited to attended the awarding of Reading very first "Food Hero" title which I'm quite chuffed about. One day I'll get that prize, it's a new goal. Forget your Michelin stars there's only one thing I'm after :-/

Still no news on the pub offer, each day that goes by I loose a little faith. I would have expected at least a response to say it had been received and was being considered (or flatly refused) but not a peep, not a sausage, not even a chipolata. I'll give them a few more days, I think each parties valuation of the existing business are at very opposite ends of the scale but there is always room for negotiation if indeed we have got our figures and forecasts wrong.
