Are things so bad at Chez Monty that you are that worried about £11.25?
What would that get you in London? Half a pint and a handjob from the roughest Kings Cross hooker...

Only if that's how much it costs to get to his ex

Oh man, give a brother a break
I had really feverish zombie dreams last night

I can't take zombies seriously anymore, it's not fair
Damn you 28 Days Later, you ruined it for me!

I like 28 days later (still shits me right up)
Didn't like 28 Weeks later. London is supposedly locked down tighter than a nuns knickers, yet 2 kids stroll out and find their mother? Say what?

28 Days Later didn't frighten me at all
I watched it with a mate, and we couldn't help but laugh at the zombies all the way through it, I think that ruined it for us.

I love a good zombie film, but the good ones are few and far between
Even Romeros are mostly shit

I've never been particularly bothered by zombies, I enjoy the ones with a little less sense in there
Resident Evil is probably my favourite. I can turn my brain off, sit back, and enjoy it.

Although Evil Dead did shit me up a bit...

Evil Dead isn't zombies so much though
I watched RE3 the other day. Quite enjoyable.

Definitely
I always found the games fairly scary, enough to make me jump a bit. Silent Hill was a different matter altogether, scared the crap out of me.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 10:39, Reply)
the trouble with those games is that I'm really trigger happy
and limited ammo games tend to frustrate me.

I might investigate the RE game for the Wii though. Haven't played one in a while.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 10:43, Reply)
I'm the same
I think that's the reason I play them, makes it more of a challenge. Put me in Half Life or Halo, and it's the complete opposite!

RE4 for the Wii gets some insanely good reviews on amazon
so I think I'll invest at some point.

I tried it on the PS3
I just found the controls ridiculous, couldn't get into it at all.

When you put it like that, it's rather silly to care about it,
but it's more that I fucked up not researching my purchase properly and got carried away in a bid-off, and that really pissed me off.

Ignore my buzz-kill comment
I'm just grouchy because I had an awful nights sleep (zombie dreams aplenty). I actually blame you and Vipros because a couple of weeks ago you were discussing corned beef and mustard sandwiches and I finally got round to eating one last night.

And what happens? Feverish zombie dreams.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 10:23, Reply)
did you enjoy the sandwich though
that's the important thing?

also, I frequently have zombie dreams. Maybe there is some kind of link between mustard and zombies...
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 10:37, Reply)
I did, I made it with tiger bread which is always a win
I reckon the mustard triggered the freaky dreams, cheese has never had an effect on my sleeping patterns, but mustard...whoa.

In my dream last night my family and I were caught out in the open by the zombies, we had to leg it which meant my 60 y/o parents were munched.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:11, Reply)
tiger bread is the best bread
at least, the best non-foreign bread. I wish I could get decent Turkish bread around here somewhere :-(

that's a pretty unfortunate dream. While I frequently have zombie dreams, I always cope quite well in them
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:14, Reply)
Turkish bread is indeed excellent.
I'm really spoilt for choice in the ethno-bread stakes round here.

We have a Greek bakery, and several West Indian ones up the -shudder- Walworth Road
I would kill to have a bagel place near.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:19, Reply)
there's nowhere to get a good bagel here either
Exeter is shockingly deprived when it comes to sandwich shops and ethnic foods other than polish and asian.

I'm still gutted that the Russian restaurant closed down. Great food, superb cabbage, lovely vodka, and hot, angry Russian waitresses.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:22, Reply)
I'm not too far from Shoreditch*, usually quite a few around there
And I can get (fairly) direct buses to my two favourite Indian restaurants in London. Luckily I don't have that exotic tastes in food and London is so full of stuff if I decided I wanted whatever I could get it.

*by bus, if I tried to walk they'd find my carcass picked clean of meat somewhere down by Borough, and that'd be impressive.

I'm a massive fan of Turkish food, and there just isn't anywhere other than dirt kebab shops
I went to an awesome place in Lewisham with my brother when I was up to see him, and now I have to make my own if I want to try and recapture it. Not the same without the glorious bread though.

We've got plenty of decent chinese, thai and indian places, but I'd commit GBH for a nice Turkish or Lebanese place or something.

I live with a Turk
He seems to live off oven chips and Red Stripe. Does he cook delicious-sounding food? No.
I've not yet had Turkish, it's a shame.

their food is awesome
I had better turkish food in london than in turkey though.

If you EVER get your lazy arse to London
I will take you on a journey of food revelation.

And then kill you.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:34, Reply)
it's not laziness
I'm as skint as I've been since leaving uni at the moment.

I look forward to it though. I love food. and being killed.

There are literally dozens of excellent Turkish places in Dalston.
There's also a good one on Mare St in Hackney, and a couple of brilliant ones on Upper Street (Gallipoli).

Despite being Turk-central, don't bother with Green Lanes as they are all fronts for herion importers.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:33, Reply)
Thank you, Mr Boyce, will bear that in mind
I've not been to Dalston yet. Hope you're feeling recovered from your blotches.
(, Mon 23 Aug 2010, 11:35, Reply)
Mangal is the best one in Dalston.
I'm much improved, thanks.
