I was only phoning him 'cos he was worrying my whippet with his infernal 'white eared elephant' trick!
We therefore retired to the snug bar of the 'Duck And Banana' to discuss matters in a civilised, reasoned, and inebriated way.
What the bloody hell am I going on about? Peter, you have a lot to answer for........

Sushi anyone? Far and away my favorite tastes.... minus the uni.
I adore Indian food. Pandori Chicken.... Try a garlic chilli chicken bahaa
Italian makes me fat, but grease and pasta are so wonderful. Mmmmmm Italian meatballs Basque too!
Mexican? The hotter the better. It's hard to beat a plate of carnitas and a cold Dos Equis Amber, or three!Love it, but keep the loo rolls in the fridge for later....
Polish food? I stayed skinny as a child due to that unfortunate cuisine. ...you've not eaten Polish food for a loooooong time, have you?
English food. Fish and chips are hard to screw up, but everything else is too close to the butcher shop floor for me. The floor?? - if it ain't been in the bin, it aint worth eatin' |
Just remember, everybody - there is no food in this world that will not benefit from being wrapped in suet pastry!

As for the Indian food question - it's the most popular restaurant and take away food by a long chalk, but the standards can vary greatly, just as with anything else. I have my local curry delivery service on speed dial.

All 'round Syzygy's house for nosh then? Bring a bottle...
Blacksword, you and I will do the meet and greet at the airport for the international guests and arrange for the taxi's.
