Too much Chicken and not enough Rice

At work today, we had a morning tea in the morning (duh!), and a BBQ in the afternoon. We also closed the phone queues early today.

Earlier this week, Dolly at work kindly gave me a voucher for a meal discount at a restaurant. She had originally got a discount book from the ANZ when she got a loan. There is a selection of restaurants that the voucher is valid at, and I looked up the associated website for the listing. Tonight, we decided on the Catch Restaurant on Ronwood Drive in Manukau.

I booked the table for two at 7pm. Overall, neither Anisha nor I were impressed by dinner. My orange juice didn't taste like orange juice, and the bread with my chicken curry didn't taste very nice. Anisha voiced that she didn't like her meal either.

Two positive comments about the restaurant were that the staff were very efficient and polite, and our meal was delivered to our table very quickly after ordering it.

We decided not to have dessert there and went home.

Anisha and I went to Charlene and Nicks to give them some Xmas presents. Anisha is to fly to Wellington tomorrow.

After that, we went to Denny's for dessert. I had a banana split. Anisha didn't feel like dessert at this stage and had a lemonade. Later that night Anisha and I swapped Xmas presents. Anisha bought me Start Trek: The animated series.

Three Occurances of Things

Today, nothing fantastic happened. Other then the horrendous weather throughout the North, and the high winds in Auckland, it was a fairly mundane day.

Blair and Dolly were working on a server for a customer that beeped strangely whenever they ran some of our Zeacom services.

I invited Anisha over to work on our holiday plans further. We made some additional bookings and were set.

Anisha wanted Pizza Hut so we went there for takeaways. I got some Wendy's. While waiting for Anishas Pizza we went to Blockbuster and browsed for a bit. Anisha suggested that we should hire out a game some time for the XBOX.

I reminded her that I already had a small selection of games. 2 to be precise (Purchasing the XBOX that time back turned out to be a bad choice). Ive still only got SWAT GST and Playboy Mansion. I really should sell the damn thing.

ZeeClub Movie Night

It was a busy day at work on Friday. We were one person down. One of our big customers had some trouble, but we got them back on their feet again.

When I came back from lunch, I saw a bum making himself comfortable on a couch on the corner of Grafton road and Carlton Gore Road.

On Friday evening was ZeeClub Movie Night. We started off with a game of Foosball, followed by a game of Who Wants to be a Millionaire on DVD.

After that, we watch "The Pursuit of Happiness". I brought Anisha, Nigel, and Kim. They seemed to enjoy themselves. We had Pizza for dinner.
