Soggy tasteless pilau rice, tasteless lamb dish, large dry chunks of paneer in the sag paneer. Wouldn't go there again. And the seats were extremely hard and uncomfortable, which didn't help!

Thanks! Did try both spellings ....

Maybe they are one of the McCanns

Erm, what's a tetrapack, just Googled it and still have no idea :) Some sort of container??

I expect Sainsbury's will be able to tell you :)

It's sometimes difficult to ensure that everywhere is adequately covered for a reasonable length of time because of window cleaning - posters get taken down and then aren't put up again. Or maybe that's just what they tell us :)

These are dried up crunchy spicy broad beans, and don't taste anything like broad beans, so I can't see the point of them, but hey ho, each to their own .....

The Goose was there and had a good time watching the dogs and the Punch and Judy :)) We'd like to see some ferret racing like they have in Dorset :) It would be great if it could be expanded to have more stalls, but I guess you are limited by people coming forward. Shame the weather was a bit rubbish, so we ended up in the Clock House having a delicious meal despite our hangovers. We'd be happy to put on some live folkie music, DJing or maybe morris dancing if you like next year - get in touch!

Not posting this for the time being - sorry.

Date is already advertised :-S and we'll miss going to the lovely Rose's new place if it's going to be the Mag :-S

Hey, sorry to interrupt, but don't want to start another thread just for this, and don't know who to PM. How are the dates of the forum drinks fixed? We sadly found out that our Goose gig at Hoopers tomorrow clashes with this month's drinks (and we'd have loved to have come, especially as we have now been to the Duke twice and really like it :) ) Our next night at Hoopers is on 3 October - and we already have the artists lined up - is it at all possible to have the forum drinks on another night, so that people who want to go to both can? And then maybe liaise in the future so there aren't clashes? You were there first - we'll fit in with the dates you want! Forum drinks are great :)

Ah - just seen on another thread that yes, it is. The Goose has two gigs coming up there in October and November :-S

Hey, don't get me started on my dogs - bet you can't beat Lipp and Lapp who have their own MySpace page, and Spotty who is a Descended Canine Master with his own website :)):)):)) Mind you, probably your Westies live neither on top of a wardrobe nor in a wooden box on a shelf :)) I've been called many things in my life, but never a Damson ....

I only read this thread as I am a > Dog-Lover!..lol xxxxxx I too only read this thread in the first place as I am a dog-lover :)) I don't think this is anything to do with male-female patterns, T.L.S., so don't let's get into all that again, lol :)) I think it's about sense of humour incompatibility :-S Relieved to hear from others that I hadn't been over the top, however, as I was feeling a bit battered :)) Oh and yes, use the ******* key that makes paragraphs, PLEASE, your posts are virtually impossible to read!! HINT - it's that big one on the right of the keyboard with a little left-pointing arrow on, probably beneath the backspace key :)) Edited to say: You have to use the big key TWICE so that you have a space between the paragraphs, rofl :))

Sounds brilliant :)

Blimey, sorry, just trying to be funny, clearly fell on stony ground, sorry sorry sorry :-$ Will wipe myself off the face of the earth immediately :-$ Memo to self: Must stop apologising

:))

Hey that sounds really interesting, where do you live Huguenot? But guess I've missed it for this year :-S

Was supposed to be live music there last night but the guy was sick and it was cancelled :(
