Eggs, pins and drink...

Easter is only a few days away - another religious holiday that's been made corporate and materialistic. I'm not buying Easter Eggs this year - I'm not religious so why should I celebrate it. I'm loving the 4 day weekend - I'm not loving the banks that are closed especially when I did another stoooooooooopid thing!!

I went to central London yesterday to pick up some things for my leaving do. I went to the cash point, I tend to deal with cold hard cash rather than credit, and put in my code. "incorrect pin number" came up so I put it in again, and the same message came up. I decided to try another machine and the same thing happened again. I used my change to buy a sandwich and then suddenly I remembered my pin! I headed back to the machine and tried my real pin - now I've messed it up and the screen is telling me to contact my card issuer - noooooooooooooo!!! I'm so dumb sometimes; now I have no access to cash over the weekend and will have to wait until late next week for my new pin number!

I didn't let that put a dampener on my day as I was having my leaving drinks after work. I had a really great time - we went from the pub in London Bridge to a Thai restaurant where we had a whole floor to ourselves and we finished the night in No5 in Cavendish square. We were treated like royalty as the website I write for organised the guest list for us. We even got a bottle of expensive champagne for free! Woo Hoo! We all felt rich and special but kept it real on our night bus home - you gotta love it!!
