  1. I'll be in Houston for two weeks shortly, on a training course. Any good
    places to go?

    I don't plan to get wrecked or anything. No Redneck type venues please!

    what exactly do you mean by 'good places'? Can you be more specific? You
    don;t want 'redneck venues' so that means you want 'places' where 'refined'
    people go?? I'm sure there are lots of refined people here to help you..

    You are talking about Texas, what do you think you'll find? It's "ALL
    REDNECK, ALL THE TIME" down there.

    I'm far from refined. Somewhere nice to eat. I'm just a working/middle class
    lad from London. I'm probably just still holding on to an old vision of
    Texas where I'll get called 'boy' if I wonder into the wrong part of town.
    I think I need to stop that. I dont want to re-enact the Eddie Murphy "New
    Sheriff in town" scene from 48 hours. 🙂

    Galveston. Driving sucks but public transport is worse. Pray your
    hotel is comfortable. Don't kill anyone.


    Lordy would like suggestions about nice places to eat in Houston. Are you
    retarded?

    Thanks (The real thing🙂

    I'm looking forward to the 'Steaks as big as your head' I keep hearing
    about. May have to have some light breakfasts 🙂

  11. Taste of Texas on I-10 West around Beltway 8 (southside) is real good
    (or was last time I was there in 1999). Now that I live in Dallas I
    hit III Forks.
