It's foodie heaven in my neighbourhood...
Every Saturday, if I can drag myself 50 yards up the street, there's a farmers' market with African Stews, hog roasts, whole spitroasted organic chickens etc, as well as dozens of gourmet deli stalls - all right next to that Belgian beer specialist pub.
A little further up the street is a gorgeous Victorian park with a large pub in the middle, with open decking all around it, overlooking the greenery. It's fucking great.

Bloody darkies
Everywhere i look, its kebab shop this Indian take away that. The Great British Fish and Chip Shop is at the very centre of what made this country great. Good, honest, healthy and above all BRITISH, these chip shops were the backbone of our family life. Now it's all fucking Kormas and Burkas, goodbye chip shops, goodbye Britain.

Hahaha
I forgot to mention the 100-year old pie and mash shop that's opposite the pub.
I forgot, because it's so fucking shit. It looks amazing but the pies are, quite literally I suspect, bollocks.

Mate, that sounds fucking lush
Friday, Jah Shaka. Saturday, hog roast, Belgian beer and verdant vistas. Expect a knock at the door during the Summer from a drunken Scotsman :)

My good man, what a generous offer.
An offer you may live to regret however. Scottish vomit is notoriously difficult to get out of carpets.

Wooden floors thoughout, old bean.
I've had a 6'8" Swiss black man throw up ALL OVER my flat once, once you've seen that very little can scare you...

Excellent foresight there my good man.
And that truly is a LOT of black man to be vomiting all over the place. I assume he made a good job of covering all surfaces? I hope your cat escaped the fountain of effluence.

That was a fucking HILARIOUS night
He actually got stuck in my lavatory (it's like a cubicle) because he was so pissed and so enormously tall he couldn't turn round to get out, so he spewed all over himself and the wall and was there, trapped and eventually unconscious.
We had been to see a band of squatters from Bristol that evening, whose singer was a dwarf in a top hat.
Magic.

Top larks
Lucky he trapped himself in an easy to clean cupboard, also lucky you didn't need to release any dirty spine.
So just to recap, you went to see a band of squatters, with a midget in, accompanied by a 6'8" Swiss negro? If that night didn't end with someone vomitting themselves unconscious, then I would have been disappointed.

That's about the size of it, yes.
In the gig some chap spilled my pal's drink and was litterally shaking with fear (he had no idea my pal is the epitome of 'gentle giant') - he bought us all a round and gave my mate a half-ounce chunk of soap bar to apologise.
