I don't know how to break it to you, Tim, but that is pretty much what a korma is - in fact, if they put flaked almonds on the top it almost qualifies as a trifle. I forget what it's called now, but there's a variation that has pineapple rings in the sauce.

Yeah, custard like with a coconutty feel. Not a tin of birds warmed in the mircrowave.

There are some disgusting crimes committed in the kitchens of Indian restaurants in the UK - eating in a good Indian restaurant is like visiting a completely different and almost unrelated country. You have my sympathy.

Jamie’s going. I’m undecided as to whether or not I’m tagging along.

Phil O will be in town.

When should we meet in the evening? I believe I'll join the LAW throng apre food.

It's a bit 'left field' but how about meeting in The York Tap at the station? Excellent range of beers!

Yep, I'll be around, with Stevie G (no, not that one). Likely to arrive in York mid Saturday afternoon and do some 'York stuff' - been lots of times, but haven't been to Jorvik Centre for years, so ... Then again, that will only get me buying bloody Vikings at the show, and I don't need any bloody Vikings... Spam, spam, spam, etc.
Not sure what our plans are for the evening, but may turn up wherever you folks are gathering...
