Do I need to suggest the Trading post again or the Pub in Thrapston?

Is there a curry (or Chinese or Italian) house in Thrapston? I just fancy eating a decent meal rather than the usual fare at work.

There used to be a fantastic (but tiny) Balti on the left hand side if walking West in the High Street.

There are 2 Indians. Thrapston Tandori, or whichever is next to the Post Office) used to know me very well and will make sure we are catered for well.

Both are simple but good curry houses.

The pub by the bridge do very good food as well.

Lets say Thrappy is on then! I'll be happy for any venue but parking on the high street is a pig. so I doubt we'll get to park as a group.

Sounds like a plan, how about meet at the Pub at the bridge for 7:30ish and then decide what and where to eat.
