Having a good day, or are you in a bit of a strop?

Greetings, goodly sir
I'm in a rather good mood, thank you.

I am leaving work at threeish, and am off out for a curry with some people off here. It shall be a little surreal, but I have high hopes of an excellent evening.

More importantly, how are you?

Well, my head hurt a great deal this morning
But gonz healed it.

Under the cosh at work with lots of impossible deadlines to meet, and my junior is off sick.

Have a good curry. Is Brick Lane still the place to go or has it gone downhill? Its years since I was down that way for socialising, just work visits nowadays.

Sadly it is fucking terrible there.
Unhygienic, generic shitty food with food colouring and excessive ghee. It's where the city boys who know no better go. I have been (reasonably) reliably informed that two adjacent restaurants actually share the same kitchens - they just have different decor up front.

The smart man heads down to Whitechapel to the almighty Tayyabs, round the back of the mosque. At little further to go for 10,000,000 times better food.

I wish Brick Lane was OK as my home is a short walk from the top of it. Unlucky re the workload.

Noted on the locale of decent food in Whitechapel.
I was taken to Bricklane in '84 when I was a minicab driver. An MD and his lackies were out on the town and when they wanted some grub in town they wanted to go there. Quite nice of them to take me in rather then leave me in my Cortina (true)

£50 quid tip too.
