General - Winchester Wonderings

I went over to Ipswich on Sunday to introduce Jaid and Malone.  I think she was a little none plussed by his play methods as he barks in joyful abandon at the thought of a good romp which is so cool.  He’s a lovely dog and very tall though not as well built as his height would at first make one think.  He’s all leg and tong and neck and happiness.

Clare and I had a smashing takeaway Indian meal from a Bangladeshi restaurant called the  Jorna.  The JALFREZI was especially good and one of the best I have eaten full stop.  ‘These are cooked with diced onion, green and red peppers and green chillies.
A delicious dish which is hot and spicy.’ Though I added some tomatoes to mine.

Yesterdays work was centred around the historic city of Winchester.  True to form the cathedral bells were wringing on my arrival and after a pleasant demo I took a walk through the busy city streets full of bank holiday tourists.  After putting the Trekker through its paces I made my way to the Mash Ton a public house owned by the blind broadcaster and journalist Peter White.

Though a little quiet the spicy beef and chicken fajitas were splendid and the pints of Hogsback and Ringwood beer I slugged were also not too shabby.  We didn’t see Peter but the food and ale more than made up for that.  If you’re in the city go for the  food.
