Midlands curry

[Matty]

Traffic depending, will be there around 6:15-6:30.

Alas I won't be bringing the elise as i'm doing a little bit of work on it at the moment, but i'll be along later. Looking forward to it.

[Jobbo]

It feels like the Elise is destined for greater things than a curry, but I'm looking forward to hearing your Abarth again anyway

Don't know. It seems quite spicy!

I’m starting to obsess about a chicken saag….. and I’m not even going to your stupid curry night.

<kicks bin over>

[Jobbo]

Saag was added to cause envy, Mik.

Good to see you all - I hadn’t realised it had been so long, Matt. Once upon a time we drove cars….

<shakes fist>

Spookily Mrs mik made a risotto tonight with fresh spinach (plus smoked haddock, shallots & Boursin cheese), which was feckin delicious, but I still ate it in an inexplicable saag-driven huff

Enjoyed that gents Bar the loudest and longest happy birthday interruption evar of course (thankfully not for one of our party)

[dan]

What a pleasant evening, should do it a bit more often than every 15 years or so.

[MikeHunt]

Great to meet you all.

And most bizarre - I so wanted to Shazam whatever it was they were playing

[Jobbo]

Oh, and apologies but I did take a photo of the pile of big crisps for Beany:

[Beany]

Good lad, looks like a decent amount of Big Crisps too.

Good food, great company and we managed to reference some forum in jokes from 20 years ago.

And yes, more frequently meeting is a good idea, even if we can't work out how to split a bill without accidentally giving a £6,000 tip.

I think there are apps to help with that kind of thing. Or, my BiL teaches A-level maths and is thinking of doing some private tuition on the side. I can put you in touch with him?

[Matty]

You've done me dirty with that picture, Simon - going in with a big claw while being judged by Chris. For the record, I only had 1.

But yes, enjoyed the overdue cachup where I also learned about RAS and that Abarth 124s are basically MX5s....so it was educational as well.

[Wilspeed]

Good stuff. Can we do a continental one now?

[Jobbo]

Currywurst bei Ihnen?

[MikeHunt]

If anyone wants a ticket for wheels on wednesday this evening, Im happy to gift it as Im sadly too busy to make it.

[Explosive Newt]

Oxford curry at some point (Standard Tandoori in Jericho obv)?
