Friday Night Dinner: The Salusbury
The Salusbury Pub has been a feature of Queen's Park for as long as we have lived in the area. They recently had a refurbishment, and as we had never eaten there, we decided to give it a try.
We were on the earlier side, and it was quiet when we arrived.
For our starters, my wife ordered the Parmesan Churros. Instead of them being sweet as you'd expect in their dessert form, they were fluffy, light, and savoury, with delightful Parmesan twang. I had a single oyster, which was served in a cucumber and jalapeño "hot" sauce. It was only slightly spicy, and didn't overpower the flavour of the oyster itself.
As her main, my wife chose the Roast Venison. It was served with caramelised onions, some chard, and a jus with cranberries to tie the whole meal together. The venison itself was perfectly cooked, and still pink on the inside. For my main course, I selected the Somerset Saxon chicken, served with herb gnocchi and girolle mushrooms. The chicken was well cooked, and had a well-seasoned and crispy skin, while the meat was soft and moist. The gnocchi were light, with the herbs adding some flavour. The girolles and sauce made it all work better.
We were still a little peckish, and decided to share a dessert. The menu had an "apple crumble". However, it wasn't an actual crumble, but rather a soufflé with apple flavour, and some crumbs to add some texture. Some vanilla ice cream cooled it down a little.
The courses at the Salusbury were excellent, and we should really have tried going much sooner. As it's pretty close by I am sure we will return.

I think this was my favourite photo of the set that I took. It's not at maximum coverage, but it does have a sun spot group (4508) just on the cusp of the terminator.

No totality here in London, but still had a great evening out in the local park and taking some snaps.
I did have a nice Solar Filter that I made for my lens, and had many conversations with people from different backgrounds. Kids loves to look through my filter after I was done (ran out of battery power).
More photos later...

Is there somebody who runs PHP on native windows (with Xdebug) and can run a simple script for me?
It must be in a file (`test.php`):
```
<?php
echo microtime(true), "\n";
xdebug_connect_to_client();
echo microtime(true), "\n";
```And run like:
php -dxdebug.log_level=11 -dxdebug.log=c:\temp\xdebug-i.log -dxdebug.client_host=localhost -dxdebug.client_port=9111 -dxdebug.mode=debug c:\temp\test.php
With the port 9111 not open.
Would love to see the output and log file (in a DM).
