Not dangerous

Met with Stowe and Andy Gibson of the School of Everything last night.

We met up in the bar of Hoxton Hotel before moving on to the Great Eastern Dining Room for a rather lovely dinner. I can't tell you what wine we had but it was great and I never expect to taste it's like again (unless I get a happy IPO experience some day!) Stowe is always good company despite, Kato like, attempts to kill me and so was Andy who seems to have survived growing up as the child of a Philosophy professor rather well.

I was, however, quite crushed when our waitress Naomi, after hearing that I was learning karate, said, and I almost quote "But you don't look dangerous at all." How do you survive that? Cue silent but deadly gags from my co-diners.

As always tends to happen with Stowe dinner conversation ranged widely and was most convivial. I look forward to meeting Andy again and, since HorsesMouth don't seem to be responding to my support requests, it looks like I need to take a serious look at School of Everything.
