h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well I was at edin Uni for 1 year then I got booted out. Something to do with too much alcohol and some failed exams, then I went to Napier Poly., as it was then, but it became a Uni the year i graduated!

Good timing on your part then. DIT didn't become University of Abertay Dundee untill well after I graduated.

Sorry i forgot to add, with regards to the Regent, still good. But we also now have Another one 'Simon's Kitchen' up at the old shops, along with a good chippie and a good Indian there too, also the old Royal Bank at the far end of Donibristle ind Est, is now an Italian!
BTW, when was the last time you were in DB?

I left DB nearly two years ago. The chinese take away was there at the old shops at that time. I can't remember if it was called 'Simon's Kitchen' then. I did prefer The Regent though. The Indian was very good too but a little to pricey.

Is the Italian any good?

Right, I Think it was 'Simon's Kitchen' then. The Indian does an excellent meal for 2 for 10quid. Pakora, Chicken Tikka, Chicken Curry, Rice, nan bread.
I tried the Italian a few months ago, having heard mixed reviews.
The place stank of oil, like at the chippie, the food was ok, but it was being run by 2 chinese and they didn't appear to have much of a clue, sort of 'if it aint on the menu....', and Italian sausage and peperonni are the same thing, well it was in the dishes we ordered!
Still, it was busy. Good if you have kids i suppose, because they do lots of deals for families. Haven't been back since.
Also the Pizza Hut at the Texaco closed down a few months ago, because Pizza Hut pulled out of all Texaco in the UK.
However, up at the Hyundai plant (just bought by Motorola, finally!), they are developing a big leisure park. There is a huge ODEON Multiplex cinema opening this summer, there is a McDonalds there now, and Pizza Hut are due to open in the summer. I think there will be 10pin bowling too. Things are looking up at last!
