We went to Swadesh only a few months ago and havent been to the Mirash for a while, and its my favourite.


Fridays arent good as people usually have other plans i.e drinking.


So - how about the 8th of June (Tuesday)? We can go to Swadesh for the July CC meet.


ED Lurker and I shall be trying Bermudian curry at the "Nights of India" tonight. Tandoori Wahoo anybody?

My friends from Berlin and Sheffield and I had Lamb Madra, Makhni Chicken and Ceylon Chicken - which were very nice.


My friend from Sheffield (who is of Indian origin) then had a very interesting discussion with Ray (Mirash Owner) about the similarities and differences between the various languages of the Indian sub-continent.


A very enjoyable evening.

Chief Bhuna - yes the indian languages are all quite similar. So if someone says they can speak 4-6 languagues...sometimes it because (I always get it the wrong way round) if you can speak Malayalam you can pick up Kanada; if you can speak Tamil you can pick up Telugu.


Apparently Hindi is easier to learn than all of these. Don't know about the other types of languages and I know there are loads of others.

Apparently Sanskrit is the base language for many of the languages, thus Urdu, Gudjarati, etc are similar - people can get the jist of a conversation, but perhaps not the nuances. Hindi is a common language for many and apparently is a somewhat blunter language than the other more finessed options.

      Council "weed" removal

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      The shots are mainly of Melford Road and the rubric suggests that the street cleaner bags on 'Thursdays'. The general rubbish collection is on Tuesdays. If the bags haven't been collected on Friday, but have been left for general disruption over the weekend then the bin men will see simply a rubbish strewn road with this rubbish not in any bin. They don't have time to street clean themselves so will not collect it. I reiterate that the crews I see for general rubbish collection, the 'bin men' are careful and considerate in their collections from bins, some of which are indeed very full, to overflowing. They don't collect bagged rubbish left on the street away from bins, nor have they the time or are tasked to clean the streets of scattered rubbish.

      Very decent of you. I accept and apologise to Penguin so as to keep "community relations" friendly.

      Coordinated posts intended to mould opinions and silence debate

      By LordshipPain · Posted

      I have been thinking about using an AI to cross-reference comments; between public commenting platforms along with the news of the day, for past events (that needed to be "dealt with" for narrative management), future events which need to be "shaped" or "nudged" to move the public in a particular direction (narrative control) and what it is that forms the "community". I think it is happening on a large number of comment forums. I can already see a pattern with a number of single-issue commenters (that have the nerve to accuse others of being "obsessed" or of being a member of certain political parties) that make feeble attempts to comment on other subjects but really have only one obsession. They are obvious. But I also want to see the patterns of enforcers and Igor / Renfield types.

      Penguin ,Underhill is a very long road (as I'm sure you know ) so I understand why you would not recognise sections of it .
