I'm back for a few days - leave again Saturday so a quick catch up.
Thursday - Bed 5.6 FBG 6.1
Up early to head to the station armed with a pack of M&S rollitos for later.
B. On the train - 1 sausage, fried egg, slice each black pudding and back bacon, tomato and mushroom. Passed on the toast. Loads of black coffee.
L. Still on a train - sipped my way through 3 vodkas and diet coke and nibbled on rollitos.
D. A bit later than usual in hotel. Small portion of mussels in white wine followed by chicken supreme in a creamy tarragon sauce, asperagus, wilted spinach, baked shallot. Liquer coffee - no sugar.
Glass of white with the meal and a baileys on ice after.
@Goonergal - I did indeed pick up my order from Hotel Chocolat in Paddington. 100% batons, giant choc drops and 85% batons as a back up! Couldn't get over the change in Paddington. I used to practically live there at the Hilton as I could leave my luggage, 4 tube lines to get about and the Heathrow check in for going back. It's a big extension.
Did a bit of walking in Bath just to get our bearings then got settled in before dinner.
Friday - bed 6.3 FBG 7.5. All my other former work mates and spouses arrived today. Lovely to get up and not have To rush about doing things.
B. In hotel - black coffee. Actimel. 1 sausage, tomato, mushroom, back bacon, fried egg. Hotel had quickly got used to my 'removals' so beans and potatoes had gone. They did have wonderful GF toast but I soon discovered not all GF toasts are carb safe! The amount of walking we did soon brought the BGs back in line.
L. Americano Massimo in Costa when the rain started and 1 100% baton who we got back to the hotel. These could become addictive. Very bitter but as they melt they leave the most delicious after taste. With practice I could eat more than one!
Caught up with friends, stayed away from alcohol as we were all going out at night.
D. Very busy restaurant at the Pultney Bridge - the Herd.
Had 2 or 3 glasses of dry white. Main only - 10 oz rib eye with mushroom and calvados brandy sauce. Had a mix of zucchini, aubergine and tomato and 2 garlic grilled prawns with it.
No dessert and yet another sugarless liqueur coffee.
Nice walk back to the hotel and gave into another 2 baileys and a good chin wag.
Weather had been warm but a bit damp at times!
