Just one more thing…

In my previous post on Swimming, I forgot something…

  1. Watches – What is it with people who feel they need to wear a watch in the pool? Is the timer at both ends of the pool not good enough to time your length? Are the clocks dotted around the pool not accurate enough to let you know when it’s time to go home?

Swimming

Victoria and I go swimming on a Thursday night, and last night I finally let the frustration of evening swimming sessions get to me. So here is my rant about people swimming…

  1. If you are at a public swimming session, then you are probably not an Olympic swimmer so, those trendy, flat, tinted goggles make you look like a t**t.
  2. Choose your swimwear carefully, those tight shorts or long waist line speedos, make you look like a t**t.
  3. Strong “power” swimmers who will not got in the “fast lane”, annoy me.
  4. People who swim head down, front crawl, and expect you to get out of their way because they can’t see you, annoy me.
  5. People who swim on their backs in crowded lanes, see point 4.
  6. People who spend most of the session talking at the end of the lanes, annoy me.
  7. People who spit in the pool, you are a t**t.
  8. Do you really need to have a bottle of power juice at the end of the lane?
  9. Attractive women who wear small bikinis, you are very distracting, but worthwhile being there… 🙂
  10. Sales people, annoy me.

Hox Brasserie

Victoria and I went to Hox Brasserie Indian Restaurant in Salisbury on Monday night.

A quote from Event Planners in Chicago website…

Hox Brasserie focuses on Southern Indian food. The spices used in these dishes are very different. For starters, they are traditional and authentic. We don’t mix the spices or believe with playing with our dishes. What we believe in is giving our diners good, traditional Indian food in a modern, contemporary environment of colour and light.

The food was very good, excellent in fact. Highly recommend it.

We ate:

Starters
Tiger Prawn Pepper Fry – Fresh, crisp tiger prawns tossed in a peppery Malabar masala.
Spicy Crab Cake – fresh flaked crab with Goa spices. Marinated mussels, cooked dry, with a special home style Kottayam masala.

Main Course
Malabar Chicken Stew – A delicacy from Kerala. An all time favourite made with boneless piece of chicken, vegetables, coconut milk and fresh spices.
Lobster Pepper FryLobster Pepper Fry – Fresh, crispy lobster tossed in a peppery Malabar masala served with rice, salad, sauce and naan.

Had a slight hickup with the hire car while we were there. I dropped Victoria off at the resteraunt and then tried to find. After I parked the car, I couldn’t get it out of Drive. The dash said that it was in Neutral, but the stick was lighting Drive. Either way, the stick wouldn’t move – nor would the car… I stuck the hand break on left it, hoping for the best. When we returned to the car later, expecting to have to call someone out to it… it worked fine!!!!

Another Year

Cake!

Well, another year has passed me by. As I get older, wiser, more handsom, and modest :), I also get more tired, fat, grey, and generally knackered… what a trade!
