in other news, if anybody has up-to-date recommendations for a good Sunday roast in Birmingham city, I'd be happy to hear them. It's hard to buy a good roast dinner in a restaurant; my mum's is better. Nobody gets the potatoes right, for one thing. Places I have tried: the Wolf (overrated), the Church (used to be good, got bought), the Red Lion (used to be good, got redone, dunno if still good). 1000 Trades is expensive and posh. More suggestions are welcomed!

@sil I think The Red Lion is pizzas only, now. The staff recently moved across from Waterside Tap, where the Sunday roasts looked decent but didn't appear to be a big seller from what I could tell, so I can see why they might be tempted to try a different approach.
