haha! you took her a sushi bar that political dissidents frequent. that is perhaps the coolest thing ever.
(thought: imagine being a 'political dissident' and the phrase coming straight after your name whenever anyone mentioned you: "claire stewart, political dissident ate a cheeseburger recently" or perhaps "the political dissident claire stewart got really fat" how cool would that be? um. yeah. i'll shut up now)
well, if any random people are visiting the BRISTOL or BATH area this winter i'll be there!
