Eating out in fancy restaurants

[Louth]

Maybe this is why I am such a failure with the women but I hate it

Dressing up posh , listening to poncey piped classical music whilst waiting for some overpriced three course meal to arrive

Sod that , give me a pub grub type meal or a beefeater steak house or a good curry or better still a Chinese takeaway in front of the telly

Pretentious nonsense but it seems women like to be wined and dinef

Well not by me , egg fried rice , noodles , spring rolls and sweet and sour pork followed by a good old chat about politics and the most influential heavy rock albums of the last thirty years

What modern woman could resist that ?

Talking of things culinary, I went for a walk with a Bristol walking group on Saturday and the very garrulous but not unpleasant Bristol Rovers fan on the walk (his bobble hat and apparel declaring his allegiance to the aforementioned sporting entity) expalained that we was over on Cardiff on a dual mission last Tuesday i.e. to watch the Wales game (as he part-Hungarian) and to visit the home of Clark's pies. He explained that Mary Clark, the founder, was his great-grandmother (and I didn't realise that the company expanded to Bristol, Swindon, Reading, Newport and Gloucester - although he said that some of that empire fell apart due to a particular gentleman in the family being too fond of the sauce (and I don't mean the meat sauce).

By the way, he attended the game in the Wales end as the away tickets sold out in a jiffy and was blown away by our fans singing the Welsh National Anthem.

They've been separate entities since the 1920's. Not sure if Clark's Pies in Bristol use the same recipe
