Curry Mile, Rusholme, Manchester

BBC Newsreader + old Nine O'Clock News theme + your news - all the words + one sentence = Your News

Last week, Winston Plowes sent his single sentence of personal news in the form of a haiku. (Gesundheit!) He's back....

"We found ourselves at the Darbar in Rusholm, Manchester, on the curry mile. My Haiku from that night is -

Darbar chaat shatter. Aloo, Chana, Tamarind. Fragrant Curry Mile."

Tabithahergest sent her "haiku of the week". If we were being picky, we might point out that it's not really her news, but it's still very good...

"January is, like a homie's low-slung jeans, almost at an end."

Here's what Radio 4's Neil Sleat read out this week:

I've just received a new photo of my adopted chimp, Eddi. She's growing up fast!

Bright red blood on the toilet seat at work.

I tried to sell a painting of a bulls head to the butcher but he told me to go away and called me a 'gypsy'.

We are having steamed sea bream for dinner, 4 for £10, what a bargain.
