  1. I think the article that best explained the water blag, and the way service had deliberately been run into the ground beforehand was lost in the Great Tory Thread Deletion. Pretty sure I did put up another article that was half as good, since? It may not have had the preamble?
  2. Fasolis, I Barocchisti & Coro Della Radiotelevisione Svizzera - Pergolesi, Stabat Mater
  3. Grand Kallé & L'African Jazz - 'Ennemi Na Ngai Ya Kala'
  4. Daddy-O - 'Go! (The Hip-Hop Portacaval Shunt)'
  5. Enjoying driving was so last century.
  6. Loads of markets at once There's a big noise in American gospel music too.
  7. Almost an Alan Partridge level concept. This is Aespa. Michael McDonald, Chris Thile, Stormzy, Anoushka Shankar, John Legend and John Mayer are elsewhere on the album. Choosing guest artists with the tombola system?
  8. The mugged off are so conditioned to eating the shit that's dished out they can't imagine anything else.
  9. Messer Chups covering Klaus Doldinger.
  10. That was 2023. Early runners for the 2024 Welsh Music Prize?
  11. Various Artists - DJ Trace 'Journeys Into Jungle'
  12. Witkap Pater Stimulo. Trappist beer that goes into the bottle alive, but at only 6% it's easy drinking.

    The old and the young are on the sharp end of the con. Maybe less pointing fingers at each other, in this thread anyway? Spot the blags and who sold them to you? You've got hindsight now, it's much easier. Being in denial only helps them get away with it. Chop chop.
  14. We have a nice East African restaurant nearby. We really liked the staff, beer and experience. MR's pic is pretty much what you get. A vast pancake in the middle of the table with different dishes tipped on it, everyone piles in from all sides. Just use hands if you like? It's fun. We felt it fell down in a couple of places. The pancake is fermented. I'm ok with fermented foods generally, but it wasn't like kimchi. It was like slightly vinegary carpet underlay. It's in Tooting, so it's up against quite a lot of cuisines that offer lots of little dishes on one plate. The thalis and lamprises are better, for me. Roti, paratha, chapathi, naan and puri breads are wonderful, then there's rice too. There is fusion Indian/African food, it's not a recent fad. Indians settled Africa and got to grips with the local produce. We had one of these, ran by the Thanki family, that was a top restaurant. Grandma came in at the weekends and made the specials. These burned bananas in their skins would come to the table. First timers would look on in horror They were fooking amazing. The building they were in was knocked down and the block redeveloped, sadly. You still see people asking the family to return on FB.

  16. Rinsed and rinsed and rinsed again, in water filled with shit. From the word go privatised water has failed the consumer. F**k the shareholders off. Get water paying for itself. Eventually it'll return profits to the state. Grauniad
  17. Putin's forces have attempted to sustain a push, after they've been allowed to advance by the Ukrainian withdrawal from Avdiivka. It clicked back to Ukraine managing retreat to inflict maximum casualties. As a sidenote, this got a bit lost with the shootings in Moscow.
  18. BBC Look at that last column. Not a clue still. Still wondering how they haven't levelled up?
  19. https://www.wired.com/story/deepfake-nude-generator-chilling-look-at-its-victims/ Inevitably.
