Shock and horror - me and Lollipop Woman have managed two dinner dates in less than two months, which for us is rather amazing... Granted, there were two cancellations between Date 1 and Date 2, but we are making some much needed progress in our catching up pace!
Northbank Restaurant is amazingly located on the north side (shockingly!) of the river overlooking the gorgeous bridges of London, and with these views you'd be crazy not to sit outside and enjoy them in the summer.
Defining 'summer' can however as many of us know be a tricky thing... Especially if you place a girl from sunny South Africa at the same table as a girl from chilly Sweden. By the time the former had started to turn a light shade of blue, the latter agreed that maybe it wasn't quite summer yet as far as dinner outside goes. With our without wine in our systems.
So we moved to the bar. Where the nice men with the alcohol live. That was a good, slash bad, decision. But ultimately an enjoyable one. And rather inspirational as that is where the nice men with the alcohol do their magic with the alcohol. That's what we needed. Inspiration to drink alcoholic beverages. We usually struggle with that.
There was food. At dinner. I have no idea what was eaten. I do however know that the nice men with the alcohol for some unknown reason did not only support our rather ridiculous behaviour, but also encouraged it by fuelling it with shots. Not just any shots, but the most amazing shots ever - the Cock Sucking Cowboys.
These shots made the conversation go from semi conservative yet silly to very open, loud and a whole other level of hilarious. There was the revisiting of absurd nights out in Edinburgh and being accidentally dry humped by a chicken turning out to be Homer Simpson, having an impromptu post birthday party dinner of chocolate pralines in bed and the dateability matrixes carefully constructed, tested and developed during working hours. Not sure the rest of the restaurant had intended to hear every single detail of our adventures throughout the last seven years, but we will happily blame the shots. Or the cocktails. Or the wine. One of those.
More cocksucking cowboys to the people!
