I'm going to the fish and chips shop. What will you have?

So much choice today but I'll keep it simple and traditional: fish, chips, scraps, salt and vinegar. There's two shops I frequent - never known if it's cod or haddock.

Has to be haddock, so I need you to ask.

Chips.

No salt, I need to add my own seasalt 💎 in large quantiles

No vinegar, it it’s utterly WRONG on chips

please can you ask if they have tartar sauce

Later when I am drunk (in my fantasy Friday night) I would like chips, grated cheese, salt (don’t give a fuck what kind at this point) and ketchup
