Pre-travel day

...and finally, we are off! We arrived at Gatwick at around 8pm this evening, did twilight check in and then went to the Nicholas Culpeper for some much needed food. Neither of us had eaten since 1pm and we were both starving! The original plan was Giraffe, but we couldn’t be bothered faffing around trying to find it when we had already stumbled on the Nicholas Culpeper.



Here is the menu in case anyone is interested. You might need to zoom in a bit!



We decided upon two toasties, one tuna mayo and one chicken and pesto. They both either came with salad or fries. Obviously we chose fries. There’s only the one photo of them as they literally looked exactly the same!



We halved them so we could each try some of each toastie. The tuna was my favourite but both were good. The chips were also nice but silly me saw a bottle of brown sauce on the table and thought it was bbq sauce as it was in the same style bottle they serve the bbq sauce in turtle bay - no, it was actual brown sauce which I hate. Luckily I managed to scoop it up with several napkins but definitely got some strange looks!

The bill including soft drinks was £21 which we thought was really reasonable, especially for airport food. When W returned to the table after ordering he had failed to bring the receipt back with him - tut tut - although I hadn’t actually told him I would be photographing receipts for dibb purposes so I’ll let him off!

We are now safely tucked in at the Premier Inn A23 Way. The room is nice and spacious and the WiFi works well. The bed seems comfortable too but the real verdict on that will come tomorrow, when we will be waking up bright and early for our Virgin flight. There will therefore be some plane food updates later in the day tomorrow, and perhaps some breakfast before we board but we’re not really breakfast people ordinarily so no promises!
