An excellent evening

I have been living in London now for a month, one week or just a bit less in my new flat. And tonight has just been a wonderful mix of my old life together with my new. I met a group of MBA’s at the Late at Tate. The Late at Tate has always been one of my favourite London things. Perfect to go alone or with a group. Tonight was focused around the current exhibition -  Francis Bacon. Who honestly is one of the most disturb artists I have ever seen grace a canvas, just truly harrowing images, peoples faces melting, or not quite discernible. Really difficult things to look at.

However, coupled with these images was the delight of being with a new group of friends and being able to invite them to stroll through the streets of Westminster to join me for a tipple at my flat. Cool huh!

It has been so long since I have been so at ease with people. Equally been in a position to offer a space for them come along to!

While I would like to claim that I opened the fridge and could conjure up an amazing antipasto or some such thing – I was limited by the selection. Restricted to cheese on toast, tomato with balsamic and a bit of humus. Strangly I could not tempt anyone on the delight of Vegemite!

It was just so lovely to have a group of people over in a spontaneous event.

So what I am hoping, as life starts to settle in London, that this becomes a regular event… well fingers crossed!
