Is anyone, else, planning to attend, this evening?

Aren't those in use on the dedicated bus lanes to/from Ataturk Airport in Istanbul going across the 1st Bosphorus Bridge?

I've never been social enough to drink that much Rum.

Well, I don't hail from the Netherlands, nor Nottingham, nor the land of the Rus.

'rum balls'
not familiar with that social disease.

Bingo!

Show up tonight, and experience the most exotic, (and least known), fruit that was/is indigenous to the UK.

Same family as the 'a apple',
but,
better, when ripe/bletted,
which these are thanks to the tundra inducing weather outer west London has experienced the last 4 days.

Do you ever improve, say an apple pie, with cinnamon or other spices?

T'would be a large rabbit could void even the smallest of these,
doubt even a wombat could manage 'em.

Much, much better than a apple.

No, not a apple.

Now I agree there was a (social) desert last week,
but,
this week there will be a fruit-based dessert.

Anyone else going this evening?

There will be a dessert.

^This x100,
and,
does the 'HB' indicate a 'special' for Hobbs of Barbican,
or,
just a lucky coincidence?

Yep, invested a late lunchtime in collecting the windfalls.
(Tree is on Council land,
so being observed picking from the branches may elicit 'nosy parker' response from passers-by,
whereas,
grubbing around in the leaflitter just looks borderline tramplike).

Will leave some of the most bletted in takeaway containers outside to benefit from
(probably) another nights frosting.

2 days of deep frost in the outer west London suburbs can only mean one thing.

Sirloin of sloth?

My 80+ year old neighbour was born'n'raised in Acton. I'll ask him if he has any memories.

I would have thought you were a Gransfors Bruk kindaguy:

or, for a British classic search for an Elwell.

Access to Covent Garden and the myriad of Outdoor Activity shops?
I would suggest you look for those with the 'waterproof' zips where hardly any of the teeth are showing. I also prefer at least smaller external zipped compartment for the everyday carry items.

Where would they have to be collected from?

Next week?

Well solitary drinking has never been my thing. Apologies if anyone shows up later, but there were no prior affirmatives.

I think, were I to even the remotest prospect of attempting this ride, I would forever be kicking myself for being so close to Uzbekistan, and not visiting Samarkand, Bokhara, & Khiva, even if I ignored Tashkent.
For example, not a recommendation; http://www.tourstouzbekistan.com/en/cities.html

Yep, I'm here.

Shall I line one up for you sifta?

His team must be really devoted, dividing his latest crap up into individual portions, rolling it into balls, then carefully wrapping in gold foil.
