real men go to spas! high five, jerry.

My 90-minute massage was followed by 30 minutes in a rose-petal-strewn bath, sipping tea. How's my testosterone quotient doing now? :)

Looking at a quiet Sunday, but planning for Monday night. Can any London-based MW's recommend a quiet, quality indian restaurant on/near Brick Lane?

There's a million places in the area, so I'm trying to separate the wheat from the chaff.

Screw you all, I'm watching all the football, all weekend.

And then complaining for the next two weeks as I can't see any of the 5pm kick-offs due to being at work.

Apart from the footy, this weekend will be spent with my son - he knows what a football is but seems to refuse to learn how to do an overhead kick at 15 months old. Slacker.

You'll just have to go out into the garden and repeatedly demonstrate your own technique for this move.

He'll pick it up in no time. ;)

Surely Sanjay knows someone who can recommend a place? :)

And my overhead technique is a bit rusty.

He knows some great places in his area of London, and probably at least one in his village. ;)

Brick Lane may, or may not, have been graced by presence?

Jerry, If you have the time while you are in Denver, you should see if you can get into the Fort http://www.thefort.com/index.htm It once hosted a G-8 dinner with Clinton, Yeltsin, Blair, and the others. It specializes in Game meat( Buffalo, rattlesnake, Venison, etc)

Denver also has several brewpubs. Breckenridge Brewery by Coors Field, The Rock Bottom on 16th st mall, Wynkoop brewery(previously owned by Denver mayor/Colorado Governor Hickenlooper) by the train station among others.

Don is spot on. The Fort! That's why I was asking if you wanted to have dinner, This place is brilliant. Now, I especially have a taste for elk, and all I've had is elk jerky. But it had none of the gaminess of others, especially venison. There are lots of exotic farmers and ranchers here, and an incredible hard time finding somebody who will simply make you a good meal. Great place for sharing dishes, and a real challenge to the person deciding what wine goes with what. The answer is, of course, BEER.
