I am feeling actually properly better today, and thank goodness, because I went up to London to see tigertrapped and vertigo would not have improved the journey.

As it was, it was pretty much perfect. The promised rain had petered out by the time I got up there, so I didn't even get wet. We met at 1030 and as neither of us had managed breakfast, we went straight to the resturant and had tea, coffee and croissants. We sat and talked until we were hungry again and ordered lunch and then sat and talked more. We were both quite impressed that we managed a five hour 'lunch'. I could have sat there hours longer, time flies when you're having fun.

The journey was relatively painless, especially when compared to the day of the windstorms that we had last time. I missed our walking tour of Chelsea and environs, though I am not sure that I would have been entirely up for it today. The underground was probably safer.

I'm now happy and tired but not exhausted. Horray for good company and for getting better.

Prestat Earl Grey Tea infused milk chocolate wafers are so unbelievably gorgeously delicious.

The infeasably generous tigertrapped seems determined to ensure I don't forget how good they are, and gave me another box of them today. I was going to save them, but I didn't even manage to wait until I got home, and ate two on the train. I have now put them away after eating more than I should have. They are the sort of thing that should be eaten two at a time with a cup of tea. I may have eaten four or five. At any rate, I feel quite buzzy and slightly ill.

OMG yum.

If you like chocolate and live somewhere that you can get your hands on these, do it.
