I sometimes wonder why i bother...

....so on this lovely short break to the Canaries, and taking aside the fact that all my family bar myself & my mother seemed to be struck down with one form of illness or another, it really struck me how much of a snob i am..

I mean is it too much to ask when you go out to eat a nice dinner that the "restaurant" is not just some graveyard where all cheap plastic garden furniture goes to die!??.. too much to hope that there won't be a TV on a shelf and too much to expect not to find a nasty vertical fridge with packaged frozen deserts going round & round like cheap capodemonti!.. and to think i'd bothered to dress in Zegna!
