    We'll mostly be in central London, so pretty much anything. I'm thinking of trying the Leon restaurants for lunch as they do lots of salads and if I ditch the sauce, should be pretty much free. We have one of their cook books and luckily dd likes that sort of healthy food (if I was taking ds it would be McD all the way!)


    That's good she's willing to eat healthy food.:)


    I had a quick look at Leon's menu and they do salads. If it was me I'd have the prawn cocktail and just syn the Marie Rose. Others are more synful with avocado plus sauce.


    Pret has a good tuna Nicoise which is totally free (last time I had it they'd swapped olives for edamame beans) and the vinaigrette comes in a separate pot.


    Fortunately, being central London you'll have masses of choice. When I started SW I'd go to BHS cafeteria and have JP with beans but sadly they are no more!:)

    Sorry to hear you're having such a stressed time with the builders. You're doing ever so well to be preparing and planning (even with a jar!).:D

    Sorry Maman I confused you. Hubby is a consulting engineer so builders are the bane of our lives (well mainly his but by association mine) and tomorrow I'm doing something a trained chimp could do....hubby has his doubts as to whether i could do it though lol.

    (No seriously it's just standing in a field watching water drain away & time it)

    There's been a change of plan (scrap plan b we're on plan t!) & came away tonight as the site is on the way to where we're going for the weekend so it made sense.

    As a result ChrisV can you put down for a holiday please?

    OMG, I thought I was the only person who get such interesting jobs.... we (meaning OH made me do it) had to do this and submit data for a soak away!

    Bloody thing is rubbish. We are going for recycled water systems in the next project!

    Remember to wear something waterproof, and take music earphones as it is so flipping boring!
