Mates birthday, a couple of pints and a Podolski kebab. Keep it real.

Tripe was hugely popular in England back in the day. I read recently there were over 200 tripe shops in Manchester alone. Now there’s zero.

Occasionally :lol:

Here’s the menu.

Going to a vegetarian restaurant on Saturday evening. Feel compelled to tell you; getting into character.
