Last week I got fish'n'chips, but the fish was tiny, he said it was a medium, I was about to walk out when he said "OK, you can have both of them for the price of a medium", so I thought to myself, "Alright, I'll 'ave a bit of that".
But when I got home, and plated it up, put a big squidge of HP Guinness Sauce on the side (I've used up a whole bottle now, need to get more), I cut into the batter and the fish, got a nice fork fall, put some HP Guinness Sauce on the side, and I put it into my mouth, where I could taste that fishy taste that some fish has (such as tuna) and I don't like. The flakes were so thin too, that this wasn't the cod I ordered, neither of them were, this was some kind of generic white fish, like pollock or that one begining with 'c'. It was then that I realised, it was then that I know, for fact, that I will never go to the fish'n'chips shop next door more again. For ever more, if I want fish'n'chips at home, I'll walk down the road to the nicer one, for although they cost more, they would _never_ try and cheat me out of cod. I would have complained but by the time I went to eat, I was in my dressing gown after a shower, and I was not about to put on clothes for this scumbag.

...well, you can have this cod today, I got no quarms with you eating cod, but just so you know, if you don't do something about it, then your children that you have with Lusty after having lots and lots of sex when she dumps that loser of a boyfriend she's currently with, then how about a nice bit of Haddock instead?

How do you do your squid? I love a bit of squid, I make my own calamaris once and it was lush.

I swear, if I owned a fish'n'chips shop, I'd do it properly, I'd go down to Billingsgate ever couple of days, and one of my staff would be a fishmonger. £2.50 for a haddock fillet fried in motzameal at the fishmongers, at the fish'n'chip shop the same size fillet would be £9. If they can make and sale that kind of mark-up, then they should be able to do it to other seafood. And I'd have things like chili salt and really nice combination of vinegars, and crayfish.

The trouble is, they're so fucking lazy, they don't even cut their own potatos or change the oil. It pisses me off because a good fish'n'chip shop would be amazing.

Probably my car
which was technically mr b3th's good deal, as I was basically there for decoration. It was my first car, 3 yeats old, one careful owner, 19,000 miles on the clock. mr b3th told the guy what he was going to pay, as a cash buyer, and then sat back with his arms folded.

The guy went back to his manager three times before coming down to our price. I got a year's tax and a tank of diesel too. I love my little car.
