In 1959 whilst working in Kent, I was introduced to two things. I saw Acker Bilk live and have loved Trad Jazz ever since. I also had my first Curry! I have abhorred Curry ever since. That particular Curry was so hot I had to drink about 2 gallons of water to poke it down. The other silly sods in the party, with sweat hosing out of their brows said they loved it! In my opinion they were saying that out of sheer bravado!
My favourite meal is: Smoked Salmon starter, Roast Beef with every Vegetable apart from parsnips that can be grown in an English garden, ( no foreign muck spices!) as the main course, followed by Vanilla Ice cream with a girt big dollop of Devonshire clotted cream on it. All this washed down with large quantities of any Red Wine (except French vinegar)
