| Peter had a birthday apple cake from an up-market shop with good coffee. A tiny shop with no tables for customers; people stood where they could. Many outlets are very small and have very few facilities for customers - no seating, no toilets. | ||||

We had lunch in the Indian restaurant Ganesh Ji; lamb rogan josh for PJ and chicken vindaloo for me, neither was very hot, but very good to have a tasty meal and I had a piece of potato in mine... Peter had lager, but cider has not penetrated the area yet. |
