I love my mum's cooking, except for one thing - veg. Honestly, her veg is one wobble away from making puree of itself. Though if we're now going on to things "I should like, but do"
1. Findus Crispy Pancakes 2. Bernard Manning's Golden Drummers 3. Birdseye potato waffles
Ridiculous, at that price I would feel guilty about not using a knife and fork - you should never use cutlery with a dirty donner; that's what mother used to say
One could argue all women are beautiful, especially if they let you take em' round back and show you their paninni (leit's sticker version in this case)
You and Dolly might need to go out for lunch together by the sounds of it.
You see... eating bread is a lot like making love to a beautiful lady… sure, you can fuss about artisan flour and hand-shaped loaves, but at the end of the day what you want is something soft, reliable, and always ready. That’s why a sliced loaf does the job every time: no waiting, just straight to satisfaction.
Too right. It doesn't get more British than good old fashioned Danish Bacon, Kerrigold butter and Heinz Ketchup. You'll get some who like the brown sauce instead of Ketchup and give you a wink as a backhanded condiment.
People like us deserve medals whilst Guthers is busy slinging his donner meat with chilli sauce to keep the good times rolling.
I bet we could get all these good times in for < £20 for the 4 of us
I was blinded by the arbitrary sprig of rocket they put on the side, I sure hope I was eating government issued bread and none of this foreign muck like soured dough.
I couldn't imagine what Friday nights were like for you as for me, those weekend shifts really brought out the best in humanity at Sainsbury's. Imagine serving a queue of 40 all yelling "cod n chips" like it’s a medical emergency. I bet you developed the hand speed of a Hemsby card dealer and the emotional resilience of a Victorian chimney sweep.
I wouldn't be surprised if traditional chippy workers don’t season their food anymore. No salt and vinegar, they just stare at there plate and remember.
@Newcy I will have to check it out, even if I did originally read it as Bowels Decline.
If they are chips bought in from the wholesaler then I bulk, but if we're talking potatoes cut on scene and properly fried - I could extend to £15 for a cod and chips as an occasional treat.
We were around the Durham area, but honestly couldn't tell you the exact place given the itinerary we had - the usual Dundee to Ipswich (and back) pilgrimage.
In the age of smashed burgers and hot honey brioche it is hard to keep up, and there I was thinking the rebranding of Toasties to Paninis was bad enough! Either way, times are always changing.
Me and my beloved legal partner were travelling the other day (within England, we're not bougie) and ended up pulling off for a mouthful of grub. Not really looking at the price, as we had no choice, I ordered a cheese and onion toastie while they got the BLT (maybe they are bougie, imagine adding salad to a perfectly good bacon sarnie.) Vanilla as I am, I ordered a tea and they got a coffee (despite an awkwardly long description of "coffee")
Needless to say, a pretty conservative meal which I was mentally thinking about £15 (£20 when you factor in motorway tax). The whole meal came to £35! Two toasties and 2 hot drinks for £35. Thatcher's Britain I tell thee! I should have had a biscuit instead.
I can confirm Ipswich are in it. Though my serious answer is that I can't really say anything about it to that detail, but I do have a feeling there will be a strong section of people who feel that the benefits of the 1 year hiatus aren't obvious.
Late November is what some of us are informally guessing. This is based purely on the time they gave us closed beta invites relative to when they usually give them out
Those were the days, when someone on here had a persistent obsession with Norwood and kinda left the board around the same time he did...
I would *never* imply that someone from this board was Norwood and bigging himself up, but should OriginalMarkyP be a user name on any Fleetwood forums...
I was thinking about this recently and how legends and icons are often titles we give for people who perform wonders at the top level. However, is the Burley Promotion into Europe actually more impressive than double promotion?
On paper, absolutely it is - however, when we look at football finances and how promotion to the PL and Europe hadn't quite reached the levels it has now, maybe the double promotion was more unlikely and impressive to achieve.
When we were in our 15 year "Everton of the Championship" era, achieving a series of mid table finishes, we were often lamenting how parachute payments and reckless financial spending (Derby in particular) made promotion harder goal to achieve - promotion always felt like a closed door.
However, in comes McKenna and takes us from a club that was starting to look like relegation to L2 was just as plausible as promotion to L1, galvanised it and added to the squad built under uncomfortable stewardship and marched to the premier league via back to back automatic promotions.
If you ask me, that is more impressive than the already remarkable feat from George Burley, and his players. So, Connor Chaplin as a club legend? Yes. Did he do more than Reuser? Yes. Keep in mind that Reuser was, and is, my favourite player I have ever watched live - so this is quite an admission from me.
Shoutout to Wes Burns, Morsy and Burgess who also deserve that accolade imho.
Burgess is a whole other box of kippers too as he did seem to fit the bill at all when he first joined, and now - he's probably one of our biggest losses.
