    They didn't, but that was a decent chippy too.

    Sadly, they've both gone now, but Anlaby now has Frydays, which is a brilliant chippy.

    I can't imagine what that must taste like, it sound as crazy as the deep fried mars bars the sell up here, and I have never dared to try one of them either.

    Sorry to hear they have both gone, I will have to give this Frydays a try after a pint in the Red lion (if that still there) when I am down next?

    The Red Lion is still alive, but is a bit of shadow of it's former self.

    Frydays is just opposite the pub.

    Sounds a bit of a theme these days, some things are a shadow of what they used to be.

    Actually, when I think about it, the last time I went in was probably well over a year ago.

    Thursday
    1. Take a full rack (set) of bacon ribs (buy on Thursday); soak in frequently refreshed cold water to reduce the saltiness.

    Friday
    2. Slowly boil in a very big broth pan, topping up with fresh boiling water when needed – the liquor must be maintained.
    3. Boil until the ribs fall apart and eat (some, not all) with good bread and a proper butter.
    4. Remove all remaining bone and keep liquor + meat; top-up with boiling water to give a good pan-full.
    5. Steep a couple of packets of dried peas overnight – don’t skimp, be bold!

    Saturday - day
    6. During the morning put the pan on heat and add the peas – be careful, boil very slowly and then simmer or you will have a pea explosion.
    7. Top up if more than an inch of level has dropped.
    8. Enjoy your first taste of quality pea soup for lunch or tea – eat the remaining meat, bit save plenty of soup for supper.

    Saturday – night
    9. Out on the hoy at Dee St Club (or Albert Club before that) – Hull Brewery bitter and a few drams; then a walk home with the gang.
    10. The women walk home to get the drinks poured and the pea soup warmed through; the pyrex dishes (reasonable size) are brought out for the grand finale.
    11. The lads pop into the chippie (Hartleys –Jack & Rene – corner Westbourne/Woodcock St; next to Ivor Watts grocery)) and pick up the Haddock, chips + scraps).
    12. Unwrap the paper and put the fish’n’chips in a dish, then salt, pepper and vinegar them.
    13. Then pour over liberal amounts of pea soup so the fish/n/chips float.
    14. Enter the kingdom of heaven in the late 60’s early 70’s!

    Now that’s 14 steps to how to eat your fish and chips and the peas are the key! Don’t forget the scraps (or batter as they are known up here)

    Carrots do not belong in pea soup, that would be a disgrace; just peas and thehn more peas!!

    Sunday - open the windows!! <laugh><devil><ok>

    Back from Huddersfield tomorrow in time for Saturday's game. Fish and chips for dinner. Only decision is Burstwick or Hedon?! Or even Bilton? Fish better from Hedon but chips better from Burstwick. Bilton probably most convenient.

    Decisions, decisions, decisions.

    i think Cameron and his puppy dog, Clegg now have legislation in place that if enough signatures can be gained for any issue, they guarantee a parliamentary debate

    You had me, until you started to pour soup over a freshly fried piece of Haddock.

    The chips , at a push, but not the fish.
