Spring, Not Quite Summer, Social & Cutty Sark
Last Friday night, Movie Roadhouse London finally had a social again! Ah, it'd been so long.. so, back at the BFI Balcony Bar , and I booked to eat at The Archduke beforehand - quite an early booking, they showed as being full after 4.45pm! I tell you, without the main organiser in town, these socials don't happen.. Made sure to get off work early, and got to the restaurant early on the first of what today became a record-breaking set of hot days! (The social was misnamed, looks very like summer has arrived..) Happily, the mushroom soup was on again, and I had the chicken as usual.. didn't have time for dessert, had to get to the social. A nd despite the apparent cap on numbers, and waitlist, and not technically happening in conjunction with The Hideout any more, I didn't get the impression that people had been excluded! It was a marvellous night, really nostalgic as I met people I hadn't met in ages, and of course it's always great to see newcomers.. ...
