Partied out

Last night was BRILLIANT. We went to the Addington Palace which is a lovely building. We were in the marquee which was beautiful (although we managed to unwittingly find a grotty bit for the pic!!)

There was a 4 course dinner followed by the band Reservoir Frogs (who were mediocre) and a DJ (excellent). I elected to drive and so avoided all the calories of wine and the lack of self-control that always follows! G is still in bed. He did not avoid the wine...

The food was every dieters worst nightmare:

• Duck and Orange paté (I left the toast but couldn't resist the pate & salad)
• Roast Beef and all the trimmings (the trimmings being those that you would have with turkey - bacon wrapped sausages & stuffing - very unusual). I didn't have stuffing, only had 2 roasties, a small bite of sausage and gave G one of my slices of beef. So not as bad as it could have been.
• Chocolate Mousse with gloop. I had 2 bites and decided that it really wasn't very nice and wasn't worth the clearly indecent calorie and fat content. So I left it.
  
• Cheese and biscuits. I completely abstained (!!!).
  
• Coffee and mints - I had just one mint and brought all the leftovers home for C.

Totalling everything up this morning I am still within my weekly points allowance - just. So I am mightily pleased. I also danced quite a bit so might have burned off that after dinner mint...
