    What a weird thing to say.

    Suggest you find a pub. Then another pub. Pub again.

    I've heard around 3 weeks so we will see him by the end of this month, hopefully.

    Alonso for Auba looks to be happening. Any help we can get up front is needed at this point, although he will be a short term band aid for us.

    Very reasonable. Carabao Cup away at Man City on 8 November is not so pretty. But clearly a much lesser cup.

    I assume (but could be wrong) that the main issue is petty theft, just like most major cities. London is a shitshow these days with watch and handbag theft. I no longer wear my nicer watches out and my wife has had 2 handbags nicked in the last 2 year, one of which was last night in our local. Fucking hate that shit but that’s life in nice areas of big cities.

    Expensive but does the job very well. Much much better than any pods and you can try different types of beans. https://www.delonghi.com/en-us/la-specialista-prestigio-espresso-machine-with-smart-tamping-station-and-dual-heating-system-stainless-steel-ec9355m/p/EC9355M

    Ketch agrees

    If you like this thread and it is helping you, don’t let a couple people run you off. Play the long game.

    Nice, Killers always put on a great show in their hometown.

    Sam at sex addiction group therapy is a classic.

    Ahhh I forgot about B&B. It’s great, with a more casual feel. I rarely do a steakhouse any more as it’s too expensive and the wine is a rip off. But If I was going in Houston, I’d do Pappas Bros on Westheimer every time.

    The whole country is magical. After 3 weeks on the road and roughing it we decided to splurge on a night in Danang to just chill. Stayed at this place, which was unreal. Went down to China beach and hit some bars in the evening. Danang wasn’t even on our itinerary but turned into a really great day.

    Haven’t lived there in 2 years but the obvious answers (I think) are steak - pappas bros cue - truth, pinkertons………..then pit room/roegels/feges tex Mex - ninfas on navigation, el tiempo, lupes bludorn if you can get a table for that size of group. Prob difficult xochi in the hotel is also great, as is Hugo’s

    We used Legend and was great. A few pics…

    Man, all these recent comments are giving me the itch to go back to Vietnam. We did 6 weeks in Vietnam and Bali in 2018 and was probably the best trip I’ve done. Hanoi -> Ha Long Bay -> Hue -> Hoi An -> Danang -> HCM. Wanted to do Sa Pa but was rainy season so had to give it a miss.

    We did two nights on Ha Long Bay and thought it was great and got to see more than just the one night tour. We also had the boat to ourselves (2 of us) so that helped tremendously.

    Good choice on Cavita, it’s great. The Baja fish tacos are fantastic. Also had the mole chicken which was also great and could easily feed three.

    Haven’t been to Evelyn’s but it’s not traditional British fare. Quite a bit of Japanese influence in the preparation.

    I can only comment on a few of these. Noble Rot is a good place but only been to the one near Holborn. I try to avoid Soho as much as possible. Evelyn's is supposed to be great but it is tiny and therefore a tough table. I went to its predecessor, an Italian joint, a few years back and it just does't seat that many patrons Gymkhana is great. It's high end, expensive curry with a cool scene and the food is spot on. Couple of decent pubs right across the street too. Haven't done Cinnamon in over a decade but it used to be solid. Paradise - don't know this one but Hoppers is another Sri Lankan place that is really good.

    There were 3 big calls - Betancur on Havertz - I was OK with this not being a foul as I thought he barely got the ball but could only tell after seeing the right replay angle - Richarlison - I thought he we clearly offsides and blocking Mendy's view. Tottenham supporters will see it differently. A bad call in my eyes, but I do see how it could go either way - Romero - that was a clear red, no doubt about it. Not many in the UK (outside of Spurs) are disagreeing that it was a red

    Hell, there’s still 2 1/2 weeks left in the summer window. Things are getting desperate at United. It’s beautiful.

    Timo gave a great effort nearly all the time, but he just couldn't finish or deliver when needed. I can't question the effort but in the end it didn't work.
  24. Doug E. Fresh
    Just booked a long weekend in early December in Strasbourg. Haven’t been there in about 15 years and looking forward to the return during the festive season.

    Maldy may be able to help bring him around. I’m optimistic. Not sure why 🤣
