Debatable if it was even as good as Cod. On the flipside, I tend to think the further south you venture the better the Indian food becomes. Well, the further south you go the closer you are to India.., 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottmcleanscontacts Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Well, the further south you go the closer you are to India..,Christ, I never thought of that, must be true.No idea what the real reason is but in my experience it does seem to be the case. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any time I frequent such places I scan what's under the lamps and order something that isn't there, usually met with someone with a screwed up face saying ' it'll be 5-10 minutes as we have to cook it' Prior to lockdown we would have had a takeaway once a fortnight or so, alternating between the Chinese and the chippy. I phoned in the order and was always told "It'll be 15 minutes", which indicated to me it was being cooked fresh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Planned to make a batch of lager today, based on weather and the fact BB1 is at school and Mrs B is able to watch BB2. Brewing is a task best done alone and with no small kids about, however, maintaining what I believe to be a 100% record Mrs B has found some stupid fucking task that means I will have to watch BB2 whilst I also boil 5 gallons of very sugary water. Every fucking time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, because what you've said is correct so any poll would reflect that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never owned either but I was one of five that got a 'perfectly balanced lift' one day after school down the road on a Raleigh Chopper. In Inverness its 'chippee' because its 'the sneckee' and that how we roll up here with any word that ends in y. Did The Monkees originally come from Inverness then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THis is a recent thing I think, they used to be great. Too dry and crispy now. Probably because they use oil and I think it used to be lard or whatever. Trying to make things healthier is shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
