I speak Turkish. I wish I had been there.

And, with a S?ghegyi furmint (2011) that also accompanied a starter of six Galway Bay oysters on the half-shell, I had parsley-and-ricotta agnolotti, from Burro e Salvia, with coarsely ground black pepper and (yes!) butter and fresh sage, along with lightly poached asparagus spears. I feel so... dirty. So... posh. It won't happen again.

Fox you speak fluent Turkish? I've got limited Turkish from trips to Istanbul in the 70s/80s. When I say limited, it's exceptionally limited ha. KK I must have been in just before you then there were two guys in when I was there, you really wouldn't miss me, in fact youd probably see me in there and think I had issues with alcohol (always off my face when I'm in there).


Louisa.

No I'm not fluent . I did 3 years at college

2000 - 2003 I know how to speak it but difficult when

They speak back to me. I have to think about

What I want to say. When I'm out in Turkey

I start to pick it back up

I know enough Turkish for to stop people

Pestering me.

I was not in k&w tonight. I'm in the EDT

Not eaten in yet. I did ask whether you could bring back the cartons for refilling and they said yes, they hoped people would. Should offer a discount if you do... Still hoping they start offering a wider range of non-meat options too, bit sparse so far when I've been in.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
