Overview

Daniel prepares and eats an Indian dinner of chicken jalfrezi, a bhaji, and a samosa, following an incident where an Aldi store refused to sell him beer because he lacked identification.

Daniel's rental application for a new apartment is approved, the contract is signed, and a payment is made, prompting plans to leave a temporary apartment and wait for the keys.
