My choice of food

It’s been a while since I updated this blog – 4 weeks to be precise. That’s 4 weeks of what so far has been 3 months of working 44 hours a week, travelling 4 hours every 2 days a week going to London and sleeping 5 hours a day 'coz I'm working night shift.

For a large part of this first quarter of a year my one hour’s escape from the daily grind of commuting and working has been all too infrequent.

Hourly adventures around the City Center in Sheffield have become a few minutes’ dash to my favorite chicken sandwich shops and takeaways. And there are many – within 10 minutes’ walk from where I work, you could easily go somewhere different for lunch every day for a year.

It’s very tempting and very convenient – I think I’ve made myself one sandwich in the last 3 weeks. From Greggs to Pret, McDonald’s to Pizza Hut, Subway to small Italian cafes – I’ve had my fair share of lunch time junk food.

From that list you’ll see that my choice of food is not very adventurous – so far I haven’t been tempted by Japanese food which seems to be very popular to me at the moment.
