Highlights

A year of the curry club! Much reminiscing and many trips down memory lane. Gallant flattery for contributions in the name of curry. Turkish trouser curtains and most lurid golden wallpaper. Excellent curry - particularly good chapatis. Attentive service, reasonable prices. Good banter all round and a table united in the pursuit of curry perfection. Discussion of suitable attire for future meetings with some mentions of a black rod.

Lowlights

We all missed our hardcore farmer, who is setting up a sister organisation - the German Union of Friendly Farmers Eating Curry (GUFF-EC). An exchange scheme will be implemented in the future. Last minute drop outs (Mr. Morgan). Faux granite tiles in the bathroom.

Notes

The rating system needs recalibrating - cogitation required before next meeting.

Score 

5 (for food), 10 (for experience)

Highlights

Service was excellent - mainly because the team picked it up and delivered it, and we never went short of beer. Facilities were more than adequate with ensuite kitchen and lambing baaaaaa-rn. Most excellent tractor calendar, Miss February sporting a fine set of pipes and a cheeky little red number. A good basic Thai Yellow/Green curry and good value for money. Learnt how to open a bottle of beer with another bottle of bear, fine until you get to the last one.....

Lowlights

Some demands for more chilli in the noodles. Snow. Wasn't allowed to check out Miss March.

Highlights

Enthusiastic waiter, new Bangladeshi Indian beer, good quality tucker for most. Good value for money. Smallest nightclub in universe.

Lowlights

Annoying Bhangra TV, too many stairs to toilet and no paper in toilet. Incredible Pantile arse cleavage manfully displayed in pub. Could not understand waiter and multiple beer requests ignored.

Next Meeting

Score 

7.8

Highlights

Very good food, with new and interesting dishes on the menu. Reasonably priced. Top notch pub to start, a purist ale establishment. Great to have fresh blood at the table. Major solutions to all world crises provided, - if only we could remember them. Also, four chaps in a small space!

Lowlights

Difficult to find. Poor decor. Long waits for service really impacted the score. Interdimensional portal in loo window (rarely good).
