Stuff.

So, the other day, Helen was demanding to know what I wanted for my birthday. Frankly, I don't like asking for stuff or assuming that people are going to buy me anything, so I usually tell people to pick something themselves. But I know some of you, like me, are rubbish at choosing things and hate feeling under pressure to buy something good.

Therefore, below is not so much a wishlist as an idea list. If you're inclined to buy me something and stuck about what to choose, something along these lines would alway be appreciated:

  • Mead. I love mead. Preferably sweet, and if you can find some interesting variations (I saw raspberry mead online, which sounded interesting) all the better.

  • Albums. CDs. I currently like Fallout Boy's new stuff and don't have the new My Chemical Romance or Lost Prophet albums. I also only have Brand New's Deja Entendu. And I like Bruce Springsteen.

  • My favourite colour is green. I especially like things on the teal-side of green.

  • Office is my favourite shoe shop, Dorothy Perkins my favourite clothes shop. Gift vouchers, however small, are cool.

  • I'm seriously allergic to non-sterling silver metals, so as much as I love funky jewellery, if you go for that sort of thing, please check the label. And I don't have pierced ears.

  • WWII or military stuff is FOR THE WIN.

  • I really don't read much. And I have no desire to. But I do have an obsession with cool notebooks.

    The birthday plan remains Lunch at Loch Fyne, around 2pm on Sunday 26th November. This is my actual birthday, hence the unusual times.

    It is really important that I know who is coming, especially if you're vegetarian as I will need to let them know some of our party will be wanting their only two vegetarian dishes.

    Thanks, kids.

    Finally, if you can't do the meal and don't want to do Spamalot at some point, please let me know so I can arrange something else.

    I don't know whether I will be able to afford anything at Loch Fyne, but I would like to come anyway!

    Some of their stuff is really quite cheap. They have 'light bites' which are about a fiver. And they have a fish pie which is like £9, which isn't too bad because it should be quite filling.

    Obv. I am coming and I don't eat meat or seafood D: I will eat chicken, though. I don't know their menu or whatever but I'm pretty sure I shouldn't have a problem.

    The menu is here: http://www.lochfyne.com/media/uploads/29/winter_menu06.pdf

    It sounds like you have the vegetarian options... :S

    I might see if there's another restaurant around.

    Well there is pasta so that settles it for me! I am excited to try this restaurant out, though, because you have mentioned it before. I am looking for a nice seafood place to take Zubin that won't break my bank, and this seems pretty good.

    Do you know what, I actually can't believe that I forgot that I work Sundays. Although I skived off today because I was all with the sicky. Gah. I'll see if anyone at work will trade a shift with me, but otherwise I may have to bully you into doing something with me another day...

    I am such a retard.
