You don't get rock salmon any more. It's lovely.

Pickled egg for a treat.

I have never had a pickled egg - what am I missing out on?

Chicken chunks are sometimes nice from chippy. Have recently been having scampi though which is delicious 😋

This is what we shared, between the 3 of us. Vinegar had also disintegrated 😢

Pea fritter is essential

Jumbo battered sausage, chips and curry sauce with a can of dandelion and burdock. Plenty of salt n vinegar.

sausage, chips and curry sauce

I hope you took the bottle of wine to yourself!
If it’s any consolation…. My cheesy chips were sloppy and my curry sauce too watery.

Is a pineapple fritter still a thing ? Used to love those as a kid

All the chips!! My usual order is just chips and mushy peas but I douse them in salt and vinegar, and make a chip butty that I can dip into the peas.
My DH thinks I'm an absolute savage 😁

Tbf you are an absolute savage

I like chip shop fish cakes. If not I'd get a pie or chicken

@bitterexwife at least it wasn’t the vegan option!

I have just located one chocolate tart. It is mine.

DH thought he was using his initiative. I missed his original call as was on here 🙄

You may be right but it's how I roll😁

Crushing disappointment! You will need to go to the chippy again at the weekend to address the shortfall in battered sausage and other such items!

It would be cod and chips for me.... but years ago the pub I worked in was next to a chippy and he did very nice burgers - so if I could go there back in time I would have one of his burgers with lots of burger relish, and share a small portion of chips.
