      I don't like spicy. However they have some dishes marked 'very mild', so I don't mind giving it a go. The problem with a restaurant is booking and fixed times - people don't turn up who say they will and vice versa - also some people want to pop in after work for an hour, others come later and want to stay till closing.

      From that point of view a pub that serves food would be a better bet. If Fleet's a goer for everyone, then 'The Station' (conveniently located!) has been recently refurbed and does decent pizza/burger menu and has comfy sofas!

          back near the beinning of this thread there were 2 options 'a' and 'b'.
          What I would have done is the first part of 'b', then watch as 'a' suddenly happened.

            Read the first page and a half of posts and couldn't see any a/b type options. I found a 1/2/3.

            Care to give a hint as to which post number you are referring to?

              That’s nothing I have been handed projects days before commissioning was due to start with mega serious problems. One that springs to mind they had the executables ready but all the source code had been deleted with no backups…
