I'm okay, you?

Can't blame you for finding a bit of sanctuary on here - I can't even dip my toes back into t'other place. Not until I get my Hazmat suit back from the dry-cleaners, at least.

IIRC, it was right next to the job centre.

Probably gone now, but there was a wee Afghan café in Rusholme, and the nan breads were worth a visit alone. I'd probably have been happy with just one of those!

Yeah, tis true. I don't miss Manchester, but I do miss the South. Lived in Rusholme for YEARS.

If it's curry you're after, city centre all the way. I know most people say This n' That, but they're wrong - Kabana is the one. I hear there's a great little place somewhere near the science museum, as well.

Also, the Thai café next to the Great Northern Warehouse - *chef's kiss*

Wouldn't bother with Rusholme, unless it's improved in the last decade or two - but it was heading in the opposite direction when I left.

I'd be inclined to give Levy a try.

"woke orthodoxy"

Where to start with that?! Bless his cotton socks.

Guess that describes me. Seems very political on here (at least on my feed), which is no bad thing - but I also want discussions about films and gochujang!

No, it's not quite the same - mostly a blessing, but sometimes a curse!

Definitely missing a few familiar faces, whether they've not moved over or don't post - I don't know.

Ah, should've been clearer - I meant I've not really found my feet here on Bluesky yet - how to approach it, what to post etc.
March 11, 2025 at 2:34 PM
Been a tough 2025, but hanging on in there!

Not spending much time on here - not really found my feet yet - and I've washed my hands of the "other place". Miss the people, but it's just a cesspit and morally, I can't carry on using it.

You well, mate?

Bought some honey! 4 parts honey to 1 part Gochujang, apparently.

Hope you're well, my friend.
March 10, 2025 at 3:40 PM
Hot gochujang honey, you say?

Now there's an idea! Will buy some more honey later.

It's the sequel to Battle Royale that I'm desperate to see.

I realised just after I posted - shows how well I listen!
