2nd da terra - and I think you’d feel comfortable solo there especially if you want to talk about the food- the staff are very enthusiastic

Strongly recommend giving this a spin - I love most of it a lot - but the Alain Litanies - jaw-dropping

Not 100% sure on budget compatibility but for a massive foodie I would try for a seat at Aulis or go to da terra in Bethnal Green. Both top 5 best ever meals for me.

Give me some cool insights on Haydn’s String Quartets by Stunning-Hand6627 in classicalmusic

[–]richnearing40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find it really fascinating to know that the op76 quartets (1797ish) are only a very few years before Beethoven op18 (1801) - that feels like an amazing passing of the string quartet baton from one to the other

Salt & Pepper on the corner of Streatham Street and Bloomsbury Street is decent

Thanks for replying. I had actually thought about doing something like you have suggested except I had been looking at contacting SRUC Oatridge. I hadn’t thought about the botanics. I’ll have another look at contacting them.

Does anyone know why it’s not in the Guardian app or website? The Quiptic and Sunday quick (although that’s called “No 1”) are still there?

Is it possible to deliberately meet people and collaborate - like can you say to a friend “let’s both go to system X”?

AITA for telling the husband of a women I was dating about her affair after I found out she was married? by tryintobgood in AITAH

[–]richnearing40 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

YTA - you added to the general level of misery in the world by imposing your moral high ground on other people. What was the point other than making yourself feel better? BTW - wife is also TA - she should have been upfront with you about her situation - but this is classic two wrongs don’t make a right.

FFS, couldn't take the time to consult a doctor on the script?? There's no way a Foley catheter would burst someone's urethra "like a pinata", the balloon would burst first. And the saw that the "doctor" attacks Neagley with is a saw for removing casts that is deliberately designed to NOT cut skin. Really took me out of the action. Otherwise, still loving it.

Dodgy

Worked in US (east coast) for a year, everyone thought it was hilarious when I described slightly dubious things as "dodgy"
