To truly reflect the day, I suggest that you take some meat and boil it until it's grey. Take bread and make a pap, with milk. Eat this with some nice ale, a pint of Tepid Dishwater should do you nicely.

Something typically English?

Roast beef would make sense, but it would be wrong on a Friday. What are you making tonight?

I could just get a takeaway, couldn't I? And then drink myself stupid.

I'm almost there, actually. I've taken off 7lbs in about 10 days.

I'm staying on it until next Friday, when I will eat breakfast at the A1 Truckstop at Colserworth (the so-called 'Belly Buster') followed by fish and chips for lunch at The Old Keswickian.

Get a Chinese :thumbup: Wonder if they're noticing a drop off in orders? :hehe:

I was reading today that Coronavirus is causing a spike in anti-Chinese sentiment. To be honest, I hadn't noticed this (possibly because I never liked the inscrutable little fúckers in the first place), so I might do my bit by firebombing the local chinky tonight.

that is a great greasy spoon, sc. Though that roundabout outside is a leeeetel beeet Russian Roulette as no-one ever seems to indicate whether they are turning into the services or going straight on. Cnuts.

Yeah to say I've never been a fan would be a massive understatement. I would imagine a firebombed chinky would smell quite nice too...

Oh, I see.

Tell you what, Clive, I don't think I've been on a weighing machine since Margaret Thatcher's second term :-\

by takeaway, do you mean KEBAB?

lovely, lovely :kebab:

Protestant/homo. It amounts to the same thing imo. They're both abominations in the eyes of God.

Yes. I've no idea why. There's nothing of him. I've seen more meat between a Chinaman's teeth.

A kebab and extreme inebriation is great and everything, but I wanted to do something out of the ordinary.

I suspect you're naturally slim though, r.

D'you know, I'm not entirely sure. I just remember seeing it on the menu and promising myself that next time...

I went there a few months ago. It was the glw's first experience of such an establishment.

She eyed the clientele nervously and at one point asked me plaintively, "Are we actually allowed to be in here?" Like there was some sort of working class test which we would fail. :hehe:

Chips and beans with a fry-up is an absolute disgrace and really filthy, but very nice. I like to break up an egg yolk in the beans, squirt in some ketchup and then just cover the chips in it. :eat:

It must be nice for the lorry drivers to meet a woman they don't then go on to murder.

I'm going to be absolutely honest and tell you what I am most looking forward to:

The egg atop the fried slice.
The fatty end of the bacon.
The sub-Richmond quality extruded pink mystery-meat 'sausage'.
Mopping the plate with the sqidgy Mother's Pride slice.

Back in 5.

A fry up is the one thing that I eat in the Masterchef style of trying to get a bit of everything on my fork. Bit of egg, black pudding, sausage, bacon, dab of ketchup - bang!

Liquid dinner of 24 Stellas at your local Spoon. Perhaps while watching a collection of Mark Francois best speeches.
