    Hi,

    Apologies for not remembering your  proper name but the quote you gave came from Chris F not me.  I quoted him since I too have a real problem with curry in any shape or form - the smell for a start.  Once in an Indian restaurant for a department do ... best not mentioned.

     

    Keep safe, keep well, cheers, Peter

      Peter,

       

      yes, I see that now. I had replied to your post, but you were both sharing the same concern. I should have quoted your next paragraph. Food sensitivity can be a big problem.

       

      You keep safe and well too.

       

      Michael

      Is a comment on nothing an implicit comment on something?

      Same if you don't/can't cut on the cut line.

      If you measure twice making the same mistake it doesn't help

      A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

    Why are English cricket pundits so determined to count chickens?

    1. Ozexpatriate

      Ozexpatriate

      It is a prerequisite of punditry. When there's nothing to say, talk about nothing.

      It is replacing "drug store" in US vocabulary as well.

    Is BR blue a difficult colour to reproduce? I have three Bachmann blue-gray coaches and a Hornby big logo Class 50, and they're in three different shades.

    1. Ozexpatriate

      Ozexpatriate

      Try BR (Southern) green.

      Or GWR green.

      Or LSWR sage green.
