I don’t get to say that often enough, but let’s hope it continues.
I had to turn up to one of our client’s office and show some people around. It turns out there was two of my friends from Sydney and one from the Gold Coast branch so we had a great catchup chat. I showed them around then they had to go see someone else. I went off and did some work and met them out the front at 12:30pm and we all went off for lunch.
We met up at a Thai restaurant. They didn’t have anywhere to sit downstairs as the place was packed so we were taken upstairs where they have the low low tables which you sit crosslegged on the floor at. We cracked our knees and sat down for a chat and a munch on prawn chips while we waited.
I ordered a Seafood Laksa. I should have asked for a super hot and spicy one but didn’t, so I just got a mild one. Blah! D’oh! They must have figured we were inexperienced Westerners as they also gave us a fork and spoon each and headed off. One of the guys chased the waiter down and got a handful of chopsticks.
We also had a couple of guys from the Brisbane office whom used to work down the Gold Coast tag along and have lunch with us so it was a pretty relaxed and fun lunch chatting and catching up with everyone.
I had made sandwiches to take with me so kept them for dinner once I got home then went out to Poker, as usual. Check my Poker Blog (link on the left) to read about the game.
