Steering

...of course..if you were able to adjust the direction in which the hot air were leaving the big tube then you would have steering....aha, advanced rocket science.

Meanwhile I am still in London which in future will be referred to as The City. This is to differentiate it from the place where my home is, which is also a city but not The City. Home is in a much smaller city which is surrounded by countryside (you know, fields, sheep, hedgerows and the like) and will be known as the country seat. Yes I know this is slightly bending the original term County Seat ..see Wiki..county town but it sounds a bit too grand for me so country seat will do fine.

Yesterday evening I went to an Italian restaurant http://www.sardo-restaurant.com/which I haven't visited for a couple of years. I think Simon has also been there. Now, it could be that I went on a bad night but it wasn't as good as usual. The food seemed warmed up rather than cooked and the waitresses have changed, which is a shame! Perhaps I will try it again and see if it was just a bad night.

I find I am already a rocket scientist and restaurant critic!
