Il Padrino Restaurant

I spent a few hours in work today before coming home.  During the week, someone was talking about Il Padrino a restaurant in Colchester, so today, I booked it for lunch.  My wife was not too keen on leaving to walk into town for lunch as we needed to do a lot at home, but agreed.  It was nice walking into town today, no arguments, and overall, a great time for all the family.  And when in the restaurant, both kids fell in love with the menu.  The service was great, and the food matched.  I even had two glasses of wine!  Walking back was nice as well.  While my wife went into a shop, I took my son on a walk to run up some miles for his Pokémon account.  Once back at home, it was some time to relax before getting back to the work at home and then watching The Voice.  My son had to go to sleep before then end, but hopefully he will get to watch some of the acts tomorrow morning.  Some of the acts were truly amazing.  I like this much more than the X factor, though I do miss it being on the BBC as they had no adverts.
