For the best part of 20 years I used to frequent a curry house, a great family-run neighbourhood place, where the food is good, and the prices unbelievably low. By chance I started going out with a woman who lived nearby, and at one time, we were going there 2-3 times a week. Then, I developed some stomach problems, and had to stop eating after 4.30pm, then Covid came, and around the same time I split up with my ex, so it's a while since I was last there. Nazam's is opposite the venue where Wolfie was fighting, so I thought I'd go over early, and treat myself to a curry. At just after 5pm, I was their first diner, and it was so nice to see everyone again. They really looked after me. Their menu has changed, physically at least, and I didn't have my reading glasses with me, so I just ordered from memory, starting with poppadoms and pickles, then mixed bhajis with a side salad, and mushroom dhansak with chappatis. The food was fantastic, even better than I remembered, and I thoroughly enjoyed it

The staff kept coming out of the kitchen to talk to me, and ask my about my family, and update me on how theirs are. When I went to pay, they told me just to give them Β£10, but I doubled that, and then walked down the roadβ¦
to The Chemic Tavern, for a pint. I sat in the same spot, where I sat 21 years ago, when I first started thinking of moving to Leeds, after a similar tasty meal at Nazam's. The pub hasn't changed much, and the beer is still excellent

I was on my second pint when the first of my mates began to arrive, and we were soon joined by more, and having a great crack (being a Northern English/Scottish word, that's how we spell it) Wolfie called in with the tickets for the fight, and then went off to the venue, while the rest of us stayed boozing in the pub

Here's Wolfie after the fight

Yes, the Momofuku is delicious Barrett![]()
I told the man in the Chilli Shop that all I know about this kind of stuff I learned from you![]()

Looks like a treat Daniel.Old couple down the road from me grow figs, I was surprised they'd even grow here
Bonus!
I hope everyone is having a great day. Sorry I can't post picsHopefully my connection will be better tomorrow. I had a pretty good day
I called in at Charlie's for coffee and a blueberry muffin, bought the kids some sweets (candy), and then called round at my mate, Matt's. We walked down to the Ridgeside brewery, and the curry and quiz do turned out to be a parent-organised fundraiser for the local primary school. They even had a beer named for, and specially brewed for, them, and it was really good. There was a nice thali too, and dessert, though I didn't have that. It was a really nice atmosphere, the beer went down well, the kids all enjoyed playing together, and I aced the quiz
After leaving the brewery tap, Cillian, Matt's lad wanted to walk to one of our slingshot spots, about a mile or so away, as he had some photography ideas. Pretty interesting, from a lad who doesn't yet have a camera!
We did as he wanted, and then walked back to a larger local brewery, where I bumped into one of the owners, who is an old friend of mine. We had another few pints, and some loaded fries, before trudging back up the hill, home. Pics tomorrow hopefully
