An evening in Rotterdam
It’s my flatmate Julien’s birthday on Sunday, and he had gone through to Rotterdam, where his girlfriend Rachel lives, for the weekend.
However, she had plans up her sleeve. She had secretly sent me an email on Thursday inviting a few of us through to a surprise birthday dinner. I am very bad at lying, and so when Julien phoned me up earlier in the day about an unrelated matter, I had to really stop myself saying “see you this evening, then!”. Cat not out of the bag, thankfully.
So, myself, Astrid, and Jae-min turned up at this lovely pancake restaurant in the middle of the woods, and you can imagine the surprise on Julien’s face when we are sitting there as he arrives. Worth the journey, for sure, and the pancakes were nice too.
