An excellent evening. Really enjoyed the company. Thanks guys. Early Happy Birthday to Hibbs also!

Now the food - it wasn't as good as I remember it being last time. However they were generous with the dips and doms to start!

Still, the quality isn't bad, and the Tawa Chicken was good, nice zing, could taste the Naga in it, but it did lack some other deep flavors that I felt should be in the dish.


Great to be back at the CC though! Thanks MP!

The birthday girl looked radiant, hot and so well preserved, like a fine bowl of chilli pickle.


Many thanks to Mucky for popping in to see us and providing us with entertainment as she managed to get lost walking back. Brums tales of salty sea-dogdom, naturism, painting, sculpting and his early days as a gigolo in the St Tropez of the '70s enthralled us all.


Food was good, but it has declined since its early days, I had the Onion Bhaji for start (2 tennis ball sized creations) and the Special Lamb Sagwala. From what I could tell, the "special" bit was the metal lid that covered the dish on arrival.


Still a good evening with a free digestiv offered at the end.

It's true, you looked stunning hibbs and it was lovely seeing you again. Nice to see you too Mr. Pally-wotsit-ooos...feel free to PM me re. sowing/planting (whereupon I shall see to it that one of my minions attends to your enquiry). Equally delighted to finally meet (the de-lurked) ED Lurker.


Brum, thanks for showing me around the area...was especially pleased to learn where the "famous" Herne is located. Always a pleasure being with you. A gigolo eh? Hmmmmm...


Glad you all had a good time...as for ...ahem...getting lost...finally arrived home safely to a concerned hubby who was in two minds about whether or not to send out a search party. All sympathy went out of the window though once he realised that, far from having simply forgotten to switch on that mobile phone he had bought me for such instances, that I hadn't even bothered to bring it with me!


*mutters: bloody mobiles...*

Well that's all very well but these things should be disclosed up front. I feel there has been a misrepresentation in the offer document. Only curry offered, not curry and 70's "goings on". That's a whole other ham sandwich, no?


Sulk.

I'm guessing that Mr. Pally-wotsit-ooos might have to seek legal advice prior to posting the "offer document" in future so as to ensure that potential attendees are made aware of exactly what's on offer before accepting (or not). Your user name suggests you might be in a position to assist legalbeagle?;-)

legalB, LM is happily married to her BP, don't think she would be running off with anyone now, especially not another girlie.

Careful now...we don't want "conflicts of interests" to become an issue now...presumably you saw what happened in the Roll Deep thread!

Objection!...you are offering an evening out, not merely a curry as you purport...you need to provide for all reasonably foreseeable eventualities...

What is this country (or closer to home, this thread) coming to? When you can't even have a curry now without it turning into a legal playground. :-S

What's next, health and safety sitting with us warning us in the possible 'issues' that could occur from a spicy curry? (However, I believe this is well documented within the curry club (tu))


This is now called the pot luck curry club - you don't know what you will get till you turn up!


Besides, i think your all just jealous you missed out on Brum's stories?

We could setup 'Storytime with Brum' if it will appease you all? B)

Oh deary deary me...I knew I should have inserted a couple of smiley faces...or something humourous between those *action* asterisk thingamijibs...you see, those of you who find them irritating, they are needed...the one occasion I fail to utilise them...oh dear oh dear...


Oh look on as I hang my head in shame and crawl away towards a platter brimming with humble pie.


*sniggers*

    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.
