I don't know what she's making yet (and actually I don't think she...

From about 8.30pm - pop by if you're near, good beer (Shepherd Neame), nice pub, some nice blokes with bells and hankies...what more could you want?

According to a notice pinned in the window of our local shop, the Hindu procession that I first wrote about here back in 2005, is due to occur again tomorrow. It passes down Leahurst Road, and we rush...tabards of the Thurkkai Amman Temple in Ealing, which is probably a clue, it seems to be the work of the Sri Lankan community. I shall endeavor to find out more before tomorrow - including times
