Dinner party - by request!
(Edit: bad spelling and typing removed at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
nou's request, because she says I have to get used to using an iBook keyboard with no functioning backspace key.)
Have had a very nice dinner, and (apparently as always)nou cooked a truly ridiculous amount of lovely food, though by some sort of heroic effort we were able to save -some- space for the main course after filling up on chilli-dusted melon chunks, prosciutto crudo & melon on little sticks, vegetable sushi, and the truly goooooooorgeous garlic & anchovy dip. Which proved to be wise, given just how good the squid in red wine & the courgettes were. (And the other things, the technical details of which I forget at this late stage.)
Met some very nice people, the LJ usernames of whom I promptly forgot (yes, gentle reader, it was that sort of party - it seems I'm fated to end up at parties wherein all the people present are introduced, or at least introduceable, by at least two names. Theatre people, roleplayers, mudders, LJers. Damn the lot of us) but will no doubt find out at some stage.
nou kindly let me try out a new paintbrush on her back, and pictures will be forthcoming. In retrospect, I should've chosen a different one, but I managed, and will be using it quite happily on other occasions.
