We went to Swadesh only a few months ago and havent been to the Mirash for a while, and its my favourite.


Fridays arent good as people usually have other plans i.e drinking.


So - how about the 8th of June (Tuesday)? We can go to Swadesh for the July CC meet.


ED Lurker and I shall be trying Bermudian curry at the "Nights of India" tonight. Tandoori Wahoo anybody?

My friends from Berlin and Sheffield and I had Lamb Madra, Makhni Chicken and Ceylon Chicken - which were very nice.


My friend from Sheffield (who is of Indian origin) then had a very interesting discussion with Ray (Mirash Owner) about the similarities and differences between the various languages of the Indian sub-continent.


A very enjoyable evening.

Chief Bhuna - yes the indian languages are all quite similar. So if someone says they can speak 4-6 languagues...sometimes it because (I always get it the wrong way round) if you can speak Malayalam you can pick up Kanada; if you can speak Tamil you can pick up Telugu.


Apparently Hindi is easier to learn than all of these. Don't know about the other types of languages and I know there are loads of others.

Apparently Sanskrit is the base language for many of the languages, thus Urdu, Gudjarati, etc are similar - people can get the jist of a conversation, but perhaps not the nuances. Hindi is a common language for many and apparently is a somewhat blunter language than the other more finessed options.

      Dirty Business on Channel 4

      The programme was brilliant and makes me wary now of sea paddling as so many areas affected. My daughter was working at a bank when privatisation of utility companies were floated. Bank advised its staff that only x number of shares could be purchased by individuals as Government rules at that time. She reported that certain people were seeking double and triple shares. Bank told her to ignore the guidelines as those customers had thousands of pounds in the bank. She was so disgusted at the banks attitude she handed in her notice, She decided that the financial world was too corrupt. Two degrees later - she now works in the NHS as an OT in mental health unit.

      Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a white (?cabbage white?) butterfly. It's awfully early, isn't it?

      Petition: Urge Israeli Government to stop law allowing execution of Palestinian prisoners

      By IlonaM · Posted

      Petition Urge Israeli Government to stop law allowing execution of Palestinian prisoners The UK Government must act urgently to urge the Israeli Government to stop the proposed law which would permit the execution of Palestinian Prisoners, past, present and future. More details We believe that such a law would constitute complete violation of the Geneva Convention and International Human Rights Law. UN experts have called for these proposals to be dropped. We call on the UK Government apply considerable and substantial political pressure and the leverage of its international obligations to prevent the Israeli Government from passing this law.
