On Friday evening, after celebrating the birthday of a colleague with drinks at the Island Queen Pub in Islington (no it wasn’t a gay Hawaiian pub), I was pretty hungry when I got back to Dorking at 11:35pm. I phoned my wife to see if she might be able to pick me up at the station, but she was wavering on making me get a cab… until I threw a Kebab offer in. Being five months pregnant Suzie_Q has an enormous appetite right now, the arrival of food is celebrated like Christmas morning by an excited child, I knew a Kebab offer would get me a lift home!
Dorking Kebab shop is very small place, but enough room to accommodate twenty or so drunks as they come staggering out of the nearby pubs onto the high street. We just made it in time to order our Chicken Kebab and chips before the pub crowds arrived. I noticed that the owners had removed their only fruit machine, presumably not making enough money on that, preferring the space for extra drunks. A shame, as I used to love picking holes in the apostrophe usage on the sign beside the machine ‘Over eighteen’s only’… “Over eighteen’s only what?�.
Once home the kebab was as usual lovely, chips unfortunately a little overdone. At least I remembered not to get the unusually potent onions they hand out at Dorking Kebab – last time I was still tasting those a week later.

Picking whole what out of apostrophes? I hope this baby isn’t going to be born with foetal junk food syndrome? And no fruit machine? what happened to healthy eating? What?

Yuck fancy feeding my niece /nephew a kebab!. That is nearly as bad as my flat mate announcing he wants to buy a deep fat frier! NO WAY yet on the other hand he wants to change the spare room into a gym?? and they say that it is us women who are difficult to understand.

This is nothing to do with kebabs really Matt = I’ve left you a message about your 20week ultrasound with your original scan pics. Of course if Suzi Q is THAT addicted to kebabs it might skew my prediction …
