Last Friday night, the little brother and Kat came up. David brought his big ladder and supplies and moved the pool flood light from its annoying position at a low height that just got in your eyes whenever it was on to a position under the eaves facing down on the pool. He got it all installed on the Friday evening before it got dark so we could try it out. It worked really well - much better than the old position. Kit actually had a swim in the pool during the proceedings (rare for her!) and there was pizza involved. Have I ever mentioned that my little brother is awesome? :)
Last night we met up with Chrissie and "the fella" for dinner at Dumpling Inn. I love Dumpling Inn but their service as always been a bit lacklustre. But last night it was just plain awful. Took a full fifteen minutes before I could get someone's attention to get a drinks order (by wildly waving *both* arms) and then it was another half an hour before we even got all our drinks. Food service was relatively slow too and we ended up being the last people in the restaurant at 21:20 (by which time the table next to us *still* hadn't been cleared from when other people left an hour before us). They really need to hire a professional waiter or two to make things a bit more efficient. Chrissie's dude seems nice enough and we had another glass of wine back at her place before calling it an evening.
