Start of the week, start of June.
The week started sensibly, and on Tuesday evening we stopped off after a bad day at work for a cheeky cocktail and some tapas at Iberica in Farringdon. They do a nice Cosmopolitan, though the tapas is not the best I’ve ever had. However, it does slightly make up for it by being able to sit at the bar and eat, which is my favourite thing. After a few drinks and nibbles we headed off home and got in at a sensible time.

By Wednesday there were client drinks to attend, and while I only intended to stay for one, the sun was shining and a couple turned into (quite) a few. Rather than being good and going home, we stayed out drinking with friends and booked into The Zetter Hotel in Farrindgon. I’ve eaten there and had a drink in the bar, as well as staying previously at The Townhouse, I’ve never actually stayed in the Zetter itself. The room was very nice, though it was a brief stay, as I was up and out for a breakfast meeting at Smiths. Amazingly I had no ill effects from the night before and the meeting went well.
Friday morning saw me back at Smiths for another breakfast – I could get used to a cooked breakfast every day!
On Friday evening we had planned to go home early, but with everyone going to the pub for leaving and birthday drinks, we thought we’d stop off for one. One became man, then cocktails at The Hospital Club and an after-show party at the extremely un-partylike venue of The Easy Hotel. It was an absolute riot, and great, great fun. But what a hectic week!
