Singing about chicken tikka and tangerines

Aren't those the words to a couple of Abba songs?

The sun finally came out in Bournemouth after a miserable week and Meyrick Park was full of middle aged going on OAPs eating, drinking, singing, dancing and then falling over onto a table causing mayhem. Thankfully that wasn't us but the group just down from us. Hee hee.

It was a good night out. I can imagine it not being so if there is even light rain. The sound wasn't the best. Could have done with more speakers and bass.  Turn it up to eleven, yes eleven.

It is Max's funky stag do this weekend.

Early start on Saturday morning over to the Zorbing Site, where we will laugh at those that are rolling down. Then it is some beers at various pubs on the way back through Wimborne area and onto a curry in Bournemouth on the evening.

It will be at this point that various old fogies and lightweights will meander off home for an early night's sleep! It is de riguer these days.

I am sure the rest will make it just as messy as the Hen Night's shenannigans at Rubyz.

Watch out Bournemouth, there will be a large group of sedate and tired old men heading your way this weekend. Whoop, whoop.

BBQ on da Beach

Just a reminder...

The annual BBQ on Bournemouth beach is set for Friday the 28th of August. Usual rules apply. 6pm onwards, hopefully it will be warm enough to swim, bring your own disposable BBQ and food & drink.

Fireworks from the pier have been arranged for guests.

Curry week for me

Details
Created: 21 July 2009

curry weekAfter the slight disappointment of my Thai Green Curry at the Sukhothai restaurant over the weekend, I was in the mood for another one and wanted to make it myself. I got to Aldi but they did have the sauce so I opted for a jar of Korma instead. I put in a fresh chilli to spice it up and it was nice enough but I still haven't got rid of my craving.

Kathryn is down at her flat for the week and she is making a curry for Wednesday as well.

I have a strong feeling that Friday night will see me going to Thai's Smile after a 3 year break for my favourite dishes there. Hopefully that craving will pass after then or then again, it might be restored as a permanent fixture!

Southbourne Groove

We all try and get involved in the local community scene in Southbourne, Dorset.

When I have time, I try and update southbournegroove.com with snippets of news and events.
