I'd call that pretty manly insofar as it's exactly the kind of thing I'd expect you blokes to do. Men are from Mars, women are from Venus, am I right sistahs?

McDonalds in Germany now do a McCurrywurst.

Well if you will elect a bunch of boarding school buggers.....

Bastid. Anyway, I'd say there's nowt I'd allow up there, but the last time I did that I got told I wasn't a proper gay. Going back to the original post, if being overweight and never spending money on clothes unless unavoidable make a person "manly" based on the criteria of this thread, then hear me fucking roar.

On a train to Frankfurt, heroically hungover. The trio of old dears opposite have spent the last hour complaining about a "vibration" in the carriage and are showing no signs of stopping.

I'm celebrating Valentine's Day by buggering off to Germany for four days. I've left him a giant lasagna in the fridge though (not a euphemism) (not that I have any idea what it could be a euphemism for, anyway).

Saw Brandi Carlile tonight. Genuinely the most fun I've had at a gig for years. Amazing voice and great entertainment.

I remember some Le Tissier-esque "too far norf" quotes being attributed to Salako at the time, but that might just have been the Chronicle being the Chronicle

Wait, what's whoopee?

Given how quick you are to equate "women" to "gay men", I do wonder what goes through your mind when you're banging your lass.

The only common ingredients are the garlic and soy sauce.

How is that even......whu.......hnhhh......

VEE HAF VAYS OF MAKINK YOU POST EFFICIENTLY

"Red Ed" ffs. As if there's been any "red" left in Labour since 1994 at the latest.

Gerraway man, 400 isn't a "tiny" venue, that's more than half the places I ever watch music. Nice environment for an act like Eels though.

Saw that on BBC FOUR, it was very good. The "support" when I saw Eels with strings in Hamburg was a Russian cartoon called . At the Brighton Dome a couple of years ago it was a juggler.

Another Old Compton Street institution.

Nearly picked up some spring greens to go in the pancakes instead of spinach. But I didn't. Fascinating story, I realise.

Canny.

Oh, I was thinking of this lot: http://laporchetta.net/ Different thing?

Don't think there's a branch of theirs properly centrally is there? (like their pizzas a lot though). Can picture a few pizzerias in/around OCR though I've never been to any. To be honest I pretty much assume any business in that neck of the woods is tied up in all kinds of dodgy stuff.
