New place for lunch
Went out with James and Nick for lunch today and we ended up at the Velvet Lobster. Was great but I noticed they didn’t have have Wifi or any sort of Internet access, which was a bit of a shame. With technologies like WiMax and satellite internet services, there really is no excuse, even if they couldn’t run a line to the shop (wasn’t really a problem in this place though).
Most of the coffee shops around here seem to have Wifi, but there’s also a couple of free places around. Nice to have the connectivity you need when you want it. You never know when you need to look up how to get rid of marketeers has, or information about how to remove the Election bar on Twitter you can share.

Loving the Velvet Lobster on the Quay
I met up with some mates at the Velvet Lobster here in the Isle of Man and was pleasantly surprised how great it was. It’s always the same when you find a new place, you don’t want to share it with everyone, for fear that it will be packed next time you turn up, but this place was just great. It’s a coffee shop/snack bar sort of place with great ambiance and the food was very very nice. I had a coffee banoffee shake and it was to die for!
Anyway, I met up with @jamesq and @nickop, two Twitter buddies of mine (unfortunately @toonjamie couldn’t join us) and we decided we should probably meet up more often and maybe organise something for all our Twitter friends. So if you’re based in the Isle of Man and use Twitter, follow one of the guys above and you’ll know when the next one it
p.s. I love the way Zemanta automatically picks out your Twitter friends and lets you link directly to their profile
