My parents had a fish and chip shop for twenty five years. I don't eat fish now.

I used to make the patties and the chips. My mam fried the chips. My dad fried everything else.

Where was that then Tigger?

Had a summer job in a fish processing place on Hessle Road way back, forget the name. One of my tasks was to fill up the fishcake making machine using a shovel from a wheelbarrow. Some fell on the floor? Just shovel it up and chuck it in. :emoticon-0101-sadsm

Newland Ave. There were eight chip shops on it when we arrived on January 1st 1962 and more in the surrounding streets like Reynoldson and Exmouth.
 
Stein update...

The mackerel pate and Padstow sourdough toast and salad was excellent.

The Hake was very good, but the two sauces and serrano crumb was a bit of a faff and didn't taste of much.

Sticky toffee pudding was excellent, though I had it with Burgess ice cream, rather than the clotted cream it came with.

French Sauvignon Blanc was very good.

Overall, it was good and I've never had one before, so it made a nice change (the good weather meant we could sit outside in the sun for it as well).
Stein update...
My box was due today but has been delayed until tomorrow.
Fortunately we did not plan to start it until tomorrow anyway. They have offered a 20% off the next box....

I'm on holiday in Dubai but last night I noticed they had Cod and Chips on the menu.

Doubt it'll be a patch on most of your but at least I can get some this year :emoticon-0110-tongu
