Pimps should stick to wearing wide brimmed fedora hats and safari suits and leave the pistachio eating to the Iranians.

Blimey, you know that Bradford's bouncing back when the pimps are eating pistachios

What next?

It is part of what the European Review of Urban Studies call the 'four steps of Urban Renaissance'.

Expect KFC employees to quote Kant and Satre as the next phase.

I did feel like re-enacting Robert De Nero in Taxi Driver & pulling out my 45 & shooting him in the belly while shouting "Suck on this". But he seemed a fairly normal bloke. And I didn't have a 45.

I've heard quite a few references to Kant in Bradford.

There's never a .45 when you need one.

Presumably he drove off in a large pink cadillac with leopard skin seat covers and porthole windows at the back?

Nah, watching a couple of Dirty Harry films, the aforementioned Taxi Driver and a couple of episodes of Starsky & Hutch is all you need.

Not had a curry at the Sweet Centre for about the same period of time as you, largely cos I found it disappointing when I was there. The bosses got a job lot of samosas from there recently for people at work though, something of the order of 120 of them and the two I had were fantastic. Very possibly the best I've ever had. A trip back for yer actual curry is now a top priority.

I was in the sweet centre a couple of months back, not sure why I didn´t post about it on here to be honest but I was impressed. Can´t for the life of me remember what I had because it preceeded quite a few beers, but I definitely recall enjoying the experience.
