Run Report by Pete
An Indian summer?
A very lucky 13 of us (Kate – our hostess, Rodders, Amanda, Jules, John, Jerome, Spider, Brett, Sarah, Heather, Duds and Doug and myself) gathered at Kate’s (address withheld to avoid the washing-up) for the annual curry run!!
Heather, looking tanned and relaxed, was bragging about how good Radiohead were and forgot to taker the first turning onto the path after 250 metres! She was not seen again (don’t mention female navigators). The beautiful run down to the Crooked Billet was only spoilt by having to stop and wait whist Jules has a p… If he isn’t getting excited about his bike frame then the flora and fauna of South Buckinghamshire seems to set him off. Either that or his mum keeps letting him out without sending him to the loo.
Straight past the CB we went and headed up into Bloom Wood where the “big loopers” left the “little loopers” (and Jerome, who went straight back to Go). We LL’s had a perfect view of the Thames valley on a fantastic evening as we ran down towards Little Marlow cemetery, where one or two of should have stopped! The run straight back up that hill to Flackwell Heath was not motivational and it was only as we hit the main road that I realised that I was a, alone and b, not near Kate’s!
Arriving back at Catherine’s Tandoori Emporium, we were served the most delightful supper. Presso, David and Selwyn who had not attended due to the fact that said restaurant did not serve Brakespeare’s on tap missed a royal feast. Malai Wali Murghi, Lamb Rogan Josh, Saag Aloo, and Baghari Phul Gobi were all perfectly cooked and complemented by basmati rice, fresh naan bread and multiple pickles. It was so good that Jerome and John went back three (3) times (allegedly). Brilliant Kate, many thanks.
The only surprising thing was there was not more Phul Gobi on the menu after the appalling state of the England Cricket team that evening.
Next week’s run if from the Fox at Ibstone. 7pm.
