No.264 Of Ballymena & Bulgaria

I went to Gillies Bar and Grill last night in Ballymena. It was ok but it was bland food. Who wants to spend good money and good night out time eating bland food? Not me. Shame really because it's a great setting.

The service, delivered not with a Ballymenian but Bulgarian (I think) accent, was good. I struggled a little bit with their pronunciation when they announced the arrival of certain dishes but then I guess they struggled with mine too.

Today, I'm in the office early. I arrived 7.30a.m. to get on with a load of work and I plan to stay here until it's done. No distractions. No rugby matches. No playing on the Internet just good old fashioned hard work - occasional Tweets excepted of course...
