Trip food report #1

Having been a bit predictable by going to Pizza Hut and Bella Italia on my first couple of nights in Manchester, tonight I decided to try the restaurant here in the Thistle Hotel.

Had one (large) glass of Shiraz, a tasty melon starter, pan-fried duck in the to be expected orange sauce with a selection of veggies, followed by a yummy whisky and honey chesecake. All very nice indeed.

Now what shall I have tomorrow? Chinese? Thai?

Bootcamp: Day 2

Well, what with there only being four of us on the course, we got through the material so quickly that three of us felt ready to take the first exam this afternoon. I hadn’t realised until I checked my MCSE transcript, but it’s just over two years since my last Microsoft exam. However, I got into the metaphorical groove quickly enough and passed without feeling much in the way of difficulty.

Plenty of time now to prepare for the second one, which is apparently slightly harder. We shall see…
