Usually at this time of the day the singular focus is to get myself home, settle on my couch with a bowl of cold cereal and unwind with a <em>Big Bang Theory/How I Met Your Mother</em> TV marathon. Even the spectre of steaming morsels of <em>eba</em> potentially chasing themselves down my throat in short order is not enough to draw me home - the <em>coup de grâce</em> is, I suspect, the fact that it has been the better part of six months since I have savoured the fiery goodness of battered, deep fried chicken.</p>
