Nice night out with THG starting with cocktails at the hotel bar with our @Lils.Lovely little chat. Then found an Italian around the corner from the hotel. It specialised in small sized plates so you could have more than one main, for example. Chiccetti. Half bottle of Valpoliccella to wash it down. Early night – golf trips away with the boys are tiring.
Breakfast this morning was a step up from Hotel Mac Puerto Marina. I had avocado toast with a perfectly poached egg and freshly cooked streak bacon with it has to be said some v nice coffee. They only put one teabag in the teapot so that was a bit weak but I had forgotten that I normally ask for two. I now keep getting ads for Hotel Mac together with some rave customer reviews. Lots of them. In all fairness if you are a package holiday type of person it probably did the job. In fact I have no complaints about it at all. It’s just that the only time I am ever likely to stay in such a hotel is with the boys on tour.
Now off out for a stroll around Covent Garden and its surroundings before meeting the fam for lunch in Cafe Pacifico and the “reveal”. This is when we get to find out the sex of Hannah’s baby. Was chatting to some Americans at the next table at breakfast and they were totes familiar with the concept but also agreed that there was no such thing “in our day”.
