About Time...

So after yesterday's not so successful date (the mother in law and her husband joining us for dinner and the fact we never made it to the cinema) we were quite looking forward to our wedding fair in Reading's Madejeski Stadium... 

However just after we got onto the motorway I was informed that I had previously been mis-informed and thus it wasn't actually on there at all! A friend, who shall not be named, had told me about an amazing wedding fair and said she might attend herself and when I messaged her this morning she said 'nah its not on there'...

When i checked the internet -It was this weekend...but last year! DOH!
Being too far along the motorway to turn around, we decided instead to go to Basingstoke and have the date we intended to have yesterday!

So we went to the Spruce Goose for lunch... it was delicious!

We had a sharing combo to start with which included Calamari Rings, Buffalo Wings, Battered Herb Mushrooms, Peri-peri Chicken Skewers and some celery sticks...

I tried a piece of calamari for the first time and it wasn't that bad! But I can't say about the buffalo wings which I promptly spat out into my napkin, making the Mr. laugh his head off!

So, we split the plate...I had the mushrooms and the skewers, and he had the wings and rings!

For our mains, I had a chicken & Mushroom risotto, and the fella had a double western burger...

His burger was literally massive! each individual burger patty was at least an inch thick, as well as onion rings and a tomato whacked in there!


 What I wore: Lace sleeve top - H&M, Sleeveless a-symmetric cardigan - Topshop, Bracelet & Earrings - Warehouse (What you can't see: Peach bandage Skirt - New look, Leopard print and gold chain bow ballerina shoes - Primark)

After Lunch we went to the cinema and watched 'About Time'.
It's a wicked film! I highly recommend watching it, so light hearted and funny with a great original story line. My fiancé also enjoyed it so it's definitely not a 'Chick-flick'.

What movies have you watched lately? Have you seen 'About Time'?
