D kindly offered to cook up a nice Fish Pie tonight for Good Friday. He invited James, Amy and I over to his place in Eastcoate to host the festivities.

London Transport didn’t make it easy for us to get there with a whole host of engineering works getting in our way but we didn’t let that stop us and by 8pm we’d made it to his place. Because of the late start that meant that we didn’t eat dinner until nearly after 10pm but the wait was worth it.

This was the first time I’d seen D’s new place (he moved in I think more than a year ago) though we’ve been trying to make plans to get together in ages. His place was really nice and there were two things that impressed me about his house – the space (he seemed to have heaps and heaps of storage space and I didn’t even get to see the spare room he had outside) and his TV! It was absolutely massive and, the coolest thing in my opinion, it had a remote controlled swinging function so you could get it to face in your direction, or any direction, you wanted. His brother and D laughingly disclosed that the TV was top of their list for “things for the house” – topping even the fridge! 🙂

Considering that D’s fish pie was a last minute plan I think he pulled it off tonight very well. Plus the fact he had to play host and didn’t really have time to prepare made it even more impressive. Very filling too … Amy even fell asleep as soon as she finished!
