Oh no, sorry to hear that Helen.

Great meeting yesterday. Nine people, so a good start to the new year.


I enjoyed my Chicken Tikka Massala and generally felt that the food had improved somewhat since our last visit, which was some time ago.


Out of interest last year we went to the following:

Jan 13 - Jaflong

Feb - Surma

Mar - Dulwich Tandoori

April - Swadesh - (Does anybody know if Swadesh is still alcohol free?)

May - Omrith

June - Jaflong

July - Mirash

Aug - Tandoori Nights

Sept - Ganapati

Oct - Dulwich Tandoori

Nov - Curry Cabin

Dec - Dulwich Tandoori

Jan 14 - Veer Zara


So , looks to me like Surma is due a visit on February 6th.


Namaste!!

Not unless they have changed their policy...


No alcohol to be consumed on the premises.

It may well be.. but I certainly do not wish to get into any debate along those lines.


At the time Swadesh decided to stop selling alcohol there had been a visit to Mecca by certain restaurant staff.


On return some local restaurants considered not selling alcohol, not just Swadesh.


After consultation with some of their customers and at Prayers with spiritual leaders

decisions were made and some restaurants decided to continue and some didn't.


It is important that people respect the wishes and beliefs of those who have chosen not to continue.


It may well be that the decision was not based on religious grounds and that I do not know.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
