I'll be there!
No starter and a medium rare sirloin steak and thin cut chips please. If I can have a bearnaise sauce, that would be great. If not, no sauce.

Excellent.
But I think they stopped doing thin cut chips a while ago.
Can someone please confirm?

If any of my fellow emergency service people are free early this evening, drop me a line as I will be killing time in the London Bridge area from about 4.30pm... Not that we want to peak too early!
