Thai and friends

H and I had a lovely time last night, out for dinner with some of my uni friends. At a Mexican bar I had a delicious Bailey's Daiquiri, then we moved on to a Thai Restaurant. The last time I remember having Thai was when we got engaged, and ordering a Green Thai Salad almost blew my head off. This time I had delicious coconut rice with a red duck curry that had a beautifully aromatic and tasty sauce. Very creamy. The only down side was when I ate a green leaf that I thought was harmless, that burnt the back of my palate, and had me reaching for the jug of water. Shame there wasn't one ... Finished off with a Bailey's liquour coffee ... I almost didn't have one, because I thought it was an Irish Coffee, which I ordered once and didn't really enjoy - however, last night one of my friends told me that an Irish Coffee was made with whisky (or rather whiskey, being Irish), not Bailey's Irish Cream, which is what I had expected. A Bailey's coffee, however, is very nice!

So, great company, great food, great drink, altogether a very pleasant night out.

Makes a change from marking!
