Foodities!
Pub food this time, not gourmet, although I hope it reflects how far England has advanced since a lukewarm meat pie and wooden chips were all that were on offer.

She meant definitely a drink, but drinking with the 'rents was never a problem with me.
Drinking high-alcohol rotgut in my room is the problem.
So we went there Saturday eve, after watching the boat-race, and a good time was had by all.

Onion bhaji, samosa, pakora and a spring roll with yoghurt and mint dip (raita).

Limey and Dani, I promise I am still eating.
Just not all that much deep-fried food at once.
