I wouldn't say it was dark outside, but it's not exactly noon out there either :P
I think I'll pop along to this one and bring the camera.
Some nice evening shots of classics could be interesting!
I probably won't be staying for the meal though - I'll be having to head straight to this from work, so I'll need to get home & tend to my dogs & stuff..
