Title: What shall I have?
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 11 January 2009, 19:55:22
I'm meeting Maria at Wales's best (and most expensive ;D ) curry house, at 21:15. (It's about time I treated her :) )

Any ideas what to have?

Chicken Tikki Masala is on my mind.

Something with loads of flavour, quite hot, but not mega hot...  :y

You busy next weekend? An easy K series coolant transfer pipe change, and dropping fuel tank on Tractor on Saturday, beer and curry Sat night, and I think Tunnie wants a hand Sunday with something :p

(I might have to be unavailable on Sunday, as I have an airbag issue on my brothers Astra to sort out).

That is the ONLY weekend I am not around (I'm in my last weekend of training)....

Any other weekend, honestly any other at all, and I'll be there.

Can we possibly re-arrange to the one after? :y

Mate, you can't beat a good Lamb Rogan Josh served with brown basmati rice and dhal. Loads of flavour and it's not too hot at all.

Lovely. :)

Well Mark, the Cobra is a given for me, I love the stuff.

Chicken madras - how hot? (I've never had it  :-[ ) but heard it recommended many times!

She's running sweet mate but she's not enjoying the really cold weather for some reason or another. Now that the weather is very cold, the aircon doesn't come on (not a fault I know), but she runs really lumpy without the aircon motor running.

On tickover it hunts a bit, and I can feel the vibration from the engine through the car. To say it's pissing me off is an understatement!!!!!

Oh well. :-/

all Omega's run at a silly low idle with Climate off - especially this time of year.

Leave the aircon on mate. It will help keep all the glass clear :y

When it's been really cold recently, the aircon won't come on. But it's nice to know that they all run low idles so it's not just mine hehe.

I have the aircon on all the time like you told me to when you came over to do the full service and the cambelt change, and yeah you're right, it does keep all the glass clear. :)

Good stuff mate.

At least your glass is clear.

I spent all day under a pug, getting to the rather (failed) washer pump.

Once I worked out 12v was reaching it, but it wasn't working, I decided it was knackered.

£15 later from halfrauds - and it's sorted :D

Wish I hadn't taken the wheel arch liner off though, I found the aux belt wasn't fitted correctly  :-X

I'm with Mr DTM, chicken madras washed down with Cobra or Kingfisher.  I'll go Vindaloo if I need to burn out a cold.  My little brother is radio rental, and goes for the stupidly hot ones - I tried one of his phals once, jeez....

Though I tend to be a plain rice person, not a fan of the floor sweepings they put in pillau ;D

Onion Bahjees are a must :y, though she says it makes me quite offensive in the morning ::)

That's nothing mate, when I was on a course in London many moons ago I went out for a curry with a few of the guys and the next day I cleared out the classroom - twice.

Now that's offensive. :P
