Just returned from a most lovely, relaxing afternoon thanks to Square Meal (a Corporate publication).

It was perfect, the sun was shining, the river was calm, and it was smooth sailing on the Bateaux London. The boat was nice and snug, the heating was on! The bell rang to mark the start of the cruise, the tea came out, the sandwiches and then the scones, tarts, battenberg, eclairs, and truffle tort, all enjoyed to the backdrop of the Thames River sights, and gentle music, played softly on the piano, in the background. On the champagne package you get a glass of champagne on arrival, while you waited for the boat to sail and you get to sit on the top deck. Shame on Square Meal for not giving us the best! But can't complain as it was a lovely prize.

And proper loos! Well impressed.

I went to a Tasting Event at the East India Company tonight which was a bit disappointing as they were very stingy with their food and drink, and the stuff in their store is unbelievably overpriced so didn't feel like bying anything. Bar of chocolate for £5 anyone? At least they gave us a few samples to take home.
