"Josh Lyman's office"

Josh has come good and is now Campaign Manager for a Cabinet Minister so Alfie and I met up with him on Friday night for a few drinks in St Stephens Tavern so we could catch up on antics in Whitehall. He provided a fascinating insight into the psyche of political operators in the centre of UK democracy. He also mentioned that the Houses of Parliament has its own Florist and that you can buy a pair of tights in there for £1.50. I know this information may appear to irrelevant at the moment but it may be worth remembering anyway.

Hunger set in around 9pm so we sought out a chippy in Covent Garden which sounded more and more amazing as the journey (long walk) continued. When I arrived the chips were worth the walk but the place was closer to an east end allotment than the Hanging Gardens of Babylon that it was described as.

We were joined at the chippy by Alfie's house mate Ainsley who showed us some of the finer establishments in the West End. Ainsley intrigued me, not because she is the daughter of a Premiership football manager, for purely none footballing reasons. Plus we saved each other from a very loud man in a bar by using a combination of our body language and well timed remarks (More sophisticated than crossing our arms and calling him names I assure you) (I wanted to do that but he was bigger than me). Although soon after I did have to explain the rules.

Top 5 Chippys
1) Cross Street Chippy Preston
2) The place we went to in Covent Garden
3) Rays Plaice in Rawtenstall
4) The place in Whitby with the Young Fish Fryer of the Year
5) Somewhere in Southport. Not exactly sure where.
