We went out for a meal today as my son had got a distinction in his English oral exam. The Whalebone, where we ate was quiet, but the staff said that this was not because of the start of the Easter Holidays for many schools.
One of the staff has a brother who managed to get to Belgium for a school trip over this time, though like many, he had his trip delayed due to the queues at the border. When people have called for the government to stop the boats, I am sure that this was not what was envisioned!
Yesterday we had been for drinks and food with Nick and Lyndsay which was a change from our normal routine. We might return tomorrow for the quiz they have. Though if we do go more regularly, I might need to conclude the discussion with one patron about politics. He had his views on refugees which I disagreed with.
Finally, Arsenal. We needed to win after Liverpool had been soundly beaten in the earlier kick off. The victory against Leeds will help our goal difference as it is not too bad compared our closest rival. It was great to see Jesus playing well and his return maybe what is needed to help us if we are to win the title. Though it will be a tough game when we play Liverpool who will not want to lose two in a row.
