London, potato pancakes, and mp3 players

I'm going to be in London on Friday and Sat. Would anyone like to get together for lunch or dinner on those days? I promise I'm not a homicidal axe murderer, and I chew with my mouth closed *g*

I made potato pancakes this evening, and they turned out surprisingly good. Less so was the apple sauce. Dear Tesco, Apple sauce is supposed to be sauce, not jam. Ick. Yours gastronomically, Ariana.

After the advice of my friendslist, I ended up taking all the advice into account, then going online to search through mp3 player reviews until my eyes crossed. I also went and talked to a salesperson somewhere to get their expert opinion, which was mostly, "Don't buy an ipod. They suck." since apparently they're the ones that get sent back the most with problems. I have eventually settled on this though half of me is expecting my father to tell me to pull the other one... It's very shiny though...

She sales lady said the same thing (about it perhaps being cause they sell more of them), but when a salesperson also says she'd rather buy a <cheap, nameless mp3 player> than an ipod, I tend to think something is wrong, especially when selling me an ipod is the more expensive option.

I'm quite happy with the model I found providing my father will actually buy it;)
