Waaah!!

I was supposed to be halfway to London right now, getting ready to meet [livejournal.com profile] annuala and [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage and I'm not, I'm at home sulking. Why? I hear you ask. Because when I went to get my ticket, my card was declined. On checking my account, I'm a ridiculous amount overdrawn. Again. Dammit!! *kicks things*

So I've let them know and [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage was lovely on the phone and just the cheerful voice I needed to hear, frankly. We'll try and sort something out for another day, hopefully.

In the meantime, I think today may well be spent watching ST:TNG while searching job sites. *snarls at HCC for the tight fisted gits they are*

In happier news, let's be sending oodles of good vibes to the ever lovely [livejournal.com profile] cookwitch for verily, she hath a job interview today! Good luck, hon! :)

I just tried to email you, but it bounced back to me. Sorry you couldn't make it. We're going up again to London next Tuesday--staying over because my flight out Wednesday leaves at 10 AM. We're thinking about Hampton Court Palace, if you could make that. :-)

I have no more holiday hours left....I could get there for the evening and meet you for dinner somewhere?

OK--I'll talk to [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage and see what we can plan. :-)

Right--this seems the easiest way to reach you these days. ;-) [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage says it's totally doable, though I'll have to leave my bags at a left luggage because we'll be staying out at Heathrow that night & we've heard that the Tube will be on strike that day. :-p Any suggestions as to where we should meet up?

Well there are several nice places near King's Cross and I believe there are
some lines still working that would get you there. If not, there are plenty of buses that go there. So shall we say meet under the thunking big
arrivals/departures noticeboard of at *pauses to do sums* 7pm? Then we can stroll and see what we find. I shall consult [livejournal.com profile] cookwitch who works near there as to a good place to go :)

King's Cross at 7PM, all right. [livejournal.com profile] elfsausage has your mobile #, and you have hers, so we're all right. :-)

We're going to the Little Lebanon restaurant in Chalton Street :) Read the comments in my "Calling Cookwitch" entry for details! :D
