Horace posted:Interestingly I had the worst Spaghetti Bolognese of my life in Italy. It was in a cafe on an industrial estate but still. Could also be because spaghetti bolognese is as Italian as chicken tikka massala is Indian. Best food I've ever had was octopus in Sicily. Just literally octopus with a bit of salad.

Yeah, we spent half a day in Naples while we were staying in Sorrento. Saw some sculpture and ate some pizza. The highlight was the sculpture

Ate lots of decent pizza in a 2 week mini tour of italy last year. We had to try and make sure ahead of time that places did gluten free due to my wife's intolerence but it turns out there's a high number of ceoliacs in Italy so it was pretty easy to find places that catered. Possibly my favourite meal though was a mixed fish dish at night outdoors at a tiny place on the dockside in Sorrento.

By the time the waiter took the 3 euros change or whatever that I'd have probably left anyway out of politeness even though the pizza was bad I was inwardly laughing at what a comprehensive shithole the place was and we ended up buying ingredients from a supermarket to make sandwiches and eating them in our hotel room for the remainder of our stay

Barry White posted:So is anyone going to be beating down the doors of a pub tomorrow at 6am? I suppose if you were desperate for a pub then early doors is the best possible time as the joint is probably as clean as it's going to be and I imagine not many people will be there... But no. gently caress that.

Unfortunatley my psychic powers don't extend to lottery numbers but I can still see the next 2 weeks very clearly. 1) Sunday/Monday media are full of pictures of packed pubs, where no social distancing or any of the other regulations are being observed by the customers, or enforced by the publicans. 2) Two weeks from now Coronavirus cases start spiking upwards 3) Boris Jonson is  "Weird, didn't expect that to happen".

Look, if you don't all get in there and sink 12 pints then it will be your fault when the pubcos are forced to close down a bunch of pubs for not being able to pay the rent they refused to waive or reduce.

When I tell friends and pub regulars about the changes we've had to make to make it even halfway okay to open again they get real antsy about it like oo hm don't like the sound of that. Like pal I just said that if you're sat outside and it rains, you can't come in, that's not exactly a great hassle for you, your beer's in a takeaway cup and you live two streets over.

Tbh, it does sound pretty poo poo. Booking ahead, queueing, handing your details over, being assigned a table that you have to stay at and some poor staff member having to go around nagging people to move further apart and stop mingling. I mean, I'm eager to patriotically support our pubs by going to them and drinking lots of beer but all of that sounds actively unpleasant.

If I'm passing I will grab a takeaway pint or whatever but yeah I have no interest in all the hassle of that. I think quite a few places have a time limit on the table and I find it kinda difficult to enjoy a pub drink with a time limit hanging over me

I'm not redundant anymore! I go back to work in August! I'm going to celebrate by waiting outside weatherspoons tomorrow to fight someone. Edit: Also a personal edit to apologize to the big man Jose. Gave him a rough time when I was on a wee bit of a bender last week.

Nearing two. e - Bottles, not litres. Litre and a half maybe. I could do that when I was ~20 and drinking to forget the fact I was alive.
