  1. It’s reasonable mate,it’s actually listed in the top 50 bars to visit in the world,very atmospheric,gets packed with Chinese and Americans,like the land that time forgot while the city beavers away above your head. I had mineral water,ice cold.

  5. I never took that pic Greg,that’s an old stock photo of one of Mr Sharmas shops,he had two,I saw the shop empty 30 odd years ago and there was still signage,now that history has been erased.I have a pic of a hash place I went to in Holland earlier this year,I will find it and post it.
  6. Old school peasant food today mate,my lady ate the scotch eggs and pork pie,I felt like Oliver Twist,in a tunnel above a tunnel,every time a train went under the place vibrated.
  7. Last time I went to Kathmandu I tried to find Mr Sharmas Eden Hash Centre which I visited 30+ years ago,he sold Temple Ball and loads of different charas,not even a sign remains,it’s as if the place never even existed.
  8. Went for a wander in the city,I used to live in Rich Street E14 the area has totally changed,met a beggar from Newcastle who has lived on the streets in London for 36 years,I gave him £24 he asked where in Newcastle was I from,I told him I was from Sunderland,he called me a Mackem c*nt.
  9. Last time I was in Holland I saw some a little lighter in colour than that,that looks like a dry sift?

  14. I once was introduced to the original milky bar kid,I asked him to say “The milky bars are on me” I got basically the same answer.
  15. Billy Redden with the banjo and burt Reynolds with the bow,both standouts.
  16. That’s why I did it,it’s like a behavioural profiler walking through a crime scene,I wanted to get inside Ditchmans mindset,so we ate in the marketplace.
