More random ramblings



The "Green Chilli" Indian Takeaway has been relaunched! I know this because their menu has come through the letterbox. "Where is it?" you may ask. And that's the problem, although it's a takeaway, the menu doesn't actually give you their address!

But they do deliver and they list the seven local areas they cover. A pity they spell three of them wrongly! Come on! Employ an English proofreader!

But they do have a web site and you can find out their address there. And people have rated their service very well! Someone from Basildon gives them maximum points for Quality, Delivery time and Service. She says,

very freindly and polite staff ill definatly be back.

Maybe forget about the proofreader!

Oh, and we think that "Smothies" are not designed to asphyxiate but are "Smoothies".

We went into Basildon on Friday evening to the theatre and found that they have finished the improvements to the town centre. The new clock tower is there -- but the clock was half an hour slow!



And the new lighting is there. There are groups of six lights (see picture) and other lights, all painted purple. Except that, when we came out of the theatre and it was dark, the lighting wasn't working!




But never mind, when we went into the town centre this morning at 10.30 am, they were working (and the clock was still half an hour slow)!

  1. Well we went to Basildon Towngate Theatre the night before to see Agatha Christie's murder "The Hollow" and the lights were working that night, the whole frame of the lights give out changing colours obviously the main light is white. Also the area by the side of M&S and St Martins church had strips of lights on the floor that also changed colour.
    Just waiting now for the Big switch on of the new BASILDON sign on the A127, you know the one that twins us with "Hollywood" (Have I spelt that right)Lol. Ginge:-)
