Or rather, how to have the busiest weekend ever without trying...
Saturday was spent going to Vines of Guildford to checkout the launch of the new F800 and F650 series, a new range of 'adventure touring' motorcycles, made famous by Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boringman in 'Long Way 'Round.' Nice bikes, though I wasn't too sure about the chaindrive, which means regular maintenance...
Also on offer were frankfurters and sauerkraut, now I'm actually allergic to anything pickled, but couldn't resist the tang of pickled cabbage so indulged...to my detriment!
Teen tobbot also wanted to visit the Ace Cafe on the North Circular, so we popped over there for some hot chocolate and chips; a weird old combo but very satisfying all the same.
Sunday however, was my chance to spend some time with my Best Beloved, dinner with Mrs Tobbot over at Wagamama's and the cherry on top: Salsa!
This was a funky little Salsa club tucked away behind the George IV pub on Chiswick High Road; we were shown some basic moves by an instructor from Salsamoves so everyone could join in, and then were treated to a live Salsa Band called Cosa Latina. The atmosphere was very friendly, the music was cool and the band was hot, hot, hot! I of course did my usual Funky Chicken moves then retired to watch the pros at play: a real learning experience!
I'm so grateful the week's here: least I will get some rest!
