Unremarkable day working from home, and after work we had our office Christmas dinner. Took the bus in, and surprisingly was the second to arrive despite being just 7 minutes before our reservation! The dinner was at "Coppi", an Italian restaurant, and I must say, this might have been the first dinner in Belfast where nothing I ordered was served with potatoes! Also, we had to order on the spot, which was a refreshing break from the norm - I never really got the idea behind ordering my dinner a month in advance! The staff somehow also forgot to put my drink on the bill, and so, they said I don't need to pay as everyone else had paid for their drinks. Felt weird to drink for free, but yay! It was barely 9:30 or so, so people wanted to grab a drink at a pub before heading home. Unfortunately, every pub in the area was so packed we couldn't get in, let alone get a drink! After three pubs, I decided to head home (others didn't give up so easy and were still wandering around Cathedral quarter looking for a pub when I left). My bus passed by literally as I was waiting to cross the road to get to the stop, so I had to wait 20 minutes for the next one.
