I had one on Saturday, I normally try and avoid them like the plague, but this was at the top of the Gherkin and had never been before. Was actually not a bad night in the end.

Off to a ball? On a Wednesday? Lady Tester and I are starting ballroom dancing lessons this weekend with an interesting chap who could only be described as a cross between Worzel Gummidge and Julian Clary. He has a highly camp but agrarian accent, and we shall see how things go; he has been recommended to us by others.
