Favourite night out?

Another one of my attempts to put human faces on those computer pixels

Considering I'm young, I don't go out drinking loads then go clubbing or anything like that.

My favourite night out is with my girlfriend out at my local Indian restaurant, having a meal (obviously) then watching some good TV with just a couple of drinks at home then a good book in bed then sleep!

I sound about 75, but I just a typical curry obsessed Brummie.

To be honest, that is my favourite evening as well. Minus the curry, that is.

Although occasionally I do like a night out, last time though I rather overdid it. Damn money-off coupons for Weatherspoons... How I was able to play cricket the following day I'll never know, I equalled my career best with the bat that day!

Well, what is your "meal" in place of my curry then Adam?

I agree with the coupons for 'Spoons, I spent a whole day in there once, I don't do that often though..even with the coupons it was a dent of my wallet!

Fish and chips. The Greeks/Cyproits who run my local chippy are the best, so long as you don't ask for a large bag... you'll end up with a family meal for three nights.

'Spoons are just very bad, although their coupons are good for one thing - discovering whether you like drinks, without paying the full price. I now know I don't like Marstons Pedigree. Plus, last time I went in my local, if you ordered a burger, you got it with two bits of bread instead of a bun. Which isn't a burger.

I've just thought, I've still got some coupons somewhere...

Funnily enough I have a Greek Cypriot couple who run a chip shop just down the road from me, they're the best in MY local area too! Apparently he also owns a house in Nicosia.

The thing with 'Spoons is that most of the bar staff are students or that sort of age, and are naturally lazy. But one thing about 'Spoons is that it's cheap Usually the burgers have buns that are massive and they have to put a stick in it to keep it upright!
