Grade II listed Brutalist classic. And also where Dave spent a fair part of his youth growing up in a council flat on the 6th floor. Still rather scuzzy when I first started going out with him, it was painted, redeveloped and chichi-fied in the noughties. Here for a unit awayday in a nearby hotel.
A later start than normal as a result as I didn't need to be there till 9.30. Okay day for one of these things: human bingo ice breaker, an intro director speech, and a series of table exercises of varying interest - from mildly entertaining to tediously dull - but all short and bite sized, so that was good.
A good lunch though of proper food, not your usual sandwich and crisps buffet and drinks after. The raffle was annoying in that they just picked the winning numbers, stuck them on the wall and then there was an almighty bunfight as people tried to spot if they had a winning ticket and if they had, make a grab for one of the prizes.
After drinks, J, M, C, IE and I went in search of food, finding very good pizzas at Pizza Sophia. Stuffed again.
It is ugly but most certainly interesting. Similar looking place in St Johns Wood area, liked driving past it. I wish I'd seen the Heygate estate before it was knocked down, some of that was hard going but make good photos!
