Massively out of touch with Manchester now but Phetpailin in China Town probably my favourite place there at the moment.

It makes me a little uncomfortable saying certain individuals would have died anyway, and the disease didn't cause their deaths: it would be impossible to judge how long they would have lived without the disease. However it's a rational article, focussed on what death rates actually are and satisfies me that all this comparison with other nations and fixation with deaths isn't necessary and is somewhat unhealthy. 👍 a very good and informative article from s magazine for 'right wing twats" according to WW resident expert. who i am now blessedly immune from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondi Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 One of my mates is currently on holiday in Thailand, I don't do Facebook, but one of my other mates sent me a post of what my mate who is in Thailand plastered on Facebook today. He said "Can't believe the police kicked me off the beach today! All they were shouting was Corona Corona!" What a fooking bellend! God knows how he's going to get back from Thailand, no doubt he hasn't even thought about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a rip off as well to be paying £12 for barely 100g of chicken and a couple of wraps. Fuck knows how they can’t turn a massive profit on that. Quite like F&Bs as long as you order the right stuff. Don't often go to Nando’s but the 2 person platter is pretty decent. Full chicken with sweet potato wedges and unlimited fizzy pop for 20 quid.

Depends which other companies are prepared to take it on, I suppose. Can’t be many chains missing from Middlebrook now? No idea how busy Wagamama has been since taking over F&Bs but that was obviously a bit of a tactical move by the parent company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Mrs Manc nearly shat herself earlier. She’d picked me up a bottle of JD, a box of Malbec and a box of Sauvignon Blanc Mrs: Don’t think you’re having all that booze to yourself you selfish bastard Me: Eh? Mrs: Fucking government have banned the sale of booze Me: Eh? Mrs: Stop fucking saying that and look at this Me: Where did you get that? Mrs: Daughter sent it me. She’s seen it on Twitter Fuckmop!!!

That is not difficult as most tourists have gone home and none are being allowed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst meal I’ve had in years at the one @ Cheadle Royal the other month. F&B the same, Chiquito slightly better but still garbage. Wagamama and Nando’s are very good at what they do, same with KFC. not had a better katzu than the waga one and their vegan range is brilliant. No point comparing KFC and Nando’s cos they’re different types of chicken restaurant... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that on the hotel I think it’s improved massively and don’t have any problems but the beer choice is shite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
