directions

I have the sort of walk or face or aura or whatever that attracts tourists and lost people to ask for directions wherever I am in the world. Today it was a group of european tourist collage kids who stopped me as I walked through Deans Yard behind Westminster Abbey and wanted to know how to get to ‘Saint Rock’. No idea what this is! A quick google and I am still non-plussed. I think at least one of those words was wrong when they asked me.
In a dream last night I was on lunch and getting a bus West of work, somewhere around Chelsea or Fulham, with lovely old red brick buildings and THE BEST BAKERS OF BREAD IN THE WORLD. I shall shop for bread here, and only here, from now on I claimed. A women asked me for directions to a restaurant she was going to, the name of which I can not remember, but she told me that it was staffed by ninjas who staged mock battles for the benefit of diners. Aha! Sez I, that’ll be such-and-such in SoHo, nearest tube is Oxford Street I think, and I remembered that Mildew had been there but a few weeks back and said that it was just brilliant. The women thanked me for my help.

As seen in my work cafeteria a plate of pastrami with the label on it saying;
“contains pastrami”
Thanks.

Charlotte, Phil and myself are working in a restaurant which serves customers seated in my parents back garden two of whom are David Mitchell and Robert Webb. The Restaurant seems to be run by head chef Gordon Ramsey so maybe we are on some sort of tv show? Someone has prepared a salad for Mitchell which has lettuce and chopped up bits of ham and I am picking through it because I am hungry.
My memory is jogged; isn’t David Mitchell a vegitarian? We can’t serve him this ham salad even though he ordered it. Ah I remember! The name of the salad he ordered often refers to asparagus and lettuce instead of ham and lettuce. Maybe I could cook up some asparagus and pop that in after eating the bits of ham. I pop a saucepan on the stove to start boiling the water and then go and ask him if he is happy with that. He isn’t. He wants something else now.
I go back to the stove which I no longer need only to find that Ramsey has ‘borrowed’ the boiling water anyway to cook some frozen peas and sweetcorn.
