Nice place - good food. The menu isn't particularly fussy but what they do they do well.

BTW - I've just read that John Torode's been bigging up a Thai Restaurant on Bridge Street. I didn't know there was one.

Cheers. Good to know.

The only Thai that I know of on Bridge Street is a little café style place. Relatively knew, I think.

Oh and they do some cracking cocktails too.

Yeah, Thailand Cafe apparently. I'll look out for it.

Went to watch The Graveltones at the Underworld in Camden last night.

If you haven't seen them, make the effort. Just superb.

Wow. Simple but brilliant. Had the lamb shank which was amazing. One of the women on our table gave me a couple of pieces from her beef skewer, which were equally tasty. A visit with Mrs BP is in order!

I KNOW that's a euphemism. I'm just struggling to work it out.

I knew as it typed that sentence that it would probably come across as a euphemism. If I'd have had to put money on the person to point it out, I would now be quids in!

Ah, thought you'd gone there with Mrs BP. Chuffed that you enjoyed it. Did you try a cocktail?

Unfortunately not. Probably as well, as it was the second leaving do of the day that I attended. I was already 3 pints of San Miguel to the good when I got there! Been checking out the full menu today and the cocktails will definitely be on the agenda next time!

Just realised that I can use my Tastecard at The Retreat. Excellent! Mrs BP is such a lucky, lucky lady to have me.

Keep telling yourself that Paddy. In case she forgets.

The Castle Hotel on Oldham St Manc to watch Billy The Kid play a gig. Enjoyed her support set at the Chuck Ragan gig, will be interesting to see how she is on top billing.

Great gig, and fir Pru's benefit, she hinted heavily that her màte Frank Turner will be at her London gig on Wednesday.

That'll be Friday 21 st November sorted then. I Am Kloot, whisky and street food?!?! It's just short of a few strippers

Night out in Harrogate last night, very unimpressed. Pretentious and overpriced.
Dan, add it to the list.
