Not much on the cards today

Today, I spent the morning fiddling about on the computer, tidying up my iTunes library and doing a few other things. Ross rang about 11.30 and we made plans to have lunch together. I jumped in the shower and then went to pick him up. We were going to take his new watch to get some of the links taken out to fit him. I had the watch in my pocket and it fell out when I sat and the bloody hands fell off! Not bad for an expensive watch! So I was pretty pissed off as I went down to the car. In the car, I found the immobiliser button had been pulled out and I immediately thought the car had been broken into as the iPod wasn't in the dock. But I opened the glove box and saw the iPod so I knew that it must have been something that Ross did when he took the car out last night.

So off I headed. As I drove out of the carpark, I clipped a column on the last turn out of the carpark and knocked the bumper strip off the column! I couldn't believe it! Almost a year we've been driving here in KL and today was the first time I have done something like that. Luckily, I only scratched the wheel hub on the car and you can hardly see it.

When I picked Ross up I wasn't really in a great mood but we had lunch at Alexis and spending some time with Ross put me in a better mood but I still couldn't wait to get home and into my PJs on the couch. I dropped Ross back at work and that was exactly what I did!

Ross came home about 5.30. He had had a pretty crap day at work so we chilled out for a couple of hours before heading out to meet one of the company president's for dinner. Sonja and Brian came with us and we met Alistair (the president) and another work colleague (Brian) at the Prince hotel for drinks. We had a couple of drinks before heading around the corner to Hakka, a local restaurant, for dinner.

We enjoyed a huge amount of food including what seemed like a never ending steam boat! The boys got stuck into the beers and Sonja and I stuck to the water. After dinner we walked back to the Prince and left the boys to have a nightcap. Sonja and I drove home about 11. It was a good night and nice to catch up with Alistair again after last seeing him in Qatar when I started working for ROTA.
