I was told this once. Full blown chippy! Do you think this is true or an urban myth?

Any other good urban myths anyone?

Bit of Tuesday night fun Grin

No chance

As in a chip shop?

No.

And the guy that works there is definitely not Elvis. Grin

I doubt Colleen would let him !!

TheVolturi · 21/09/2021 17:54

I think if Wayne was going to have any sort of shop in his house for convenience it would likely be a brothel.

Grin I think he just looks like he lives in a chippy.

I would, and a proper pizza oven and a chef.

Not an urban myth but my favourite ever is Helena Bonham Carter and Tim Burton living as partners but it separate adjoining houses, which were decorated to their individual tastes.

I often dream that is my life, my dh would be all tasteful minimalist decor and mine would be 19th century French. Saying that I probably would do away with the interconnecting door.

Doubt it but it's a brilliant idea. I'd do it if I had his money. Better than spending it on cocaine and/or extra marital company!

Probably. It’s the kind of ostentatious, showy display you would expect from someone like him.

Scarby9 · 21/09/2021 18:00

No.
But Shearer has a 9 hole golf course in his back garden.
True fact.

MaryGubbins · 21/09/2021 18:00

Maybe he has an industrial sized fat fryer not an actual chip shop? It’s not exactly athlete food though is it?

LynetteScavo · 21/09/2021 18:04

Wouldn't it take a king time for the fat to heat up in a big chip shop size fryer thing?

TheQueef · 21/09/2021 18:07

It'd stink.
A lovely smell when you're starving and they're freshly fried.
Not so much after twelve hours of it.
I used to work in a chippy in my teens, permanently greasy.

I thought he sponsored or invested in his favourite local fish and chip shop when they were threatened with closure, or something, rather than bought his own to actually go in his house?

Mariah Carey definitely has an employee who’s only job it is is to hold her cup whilst she’s drinking from it, tho’. Tru faktz.

dreamkitchenhelp · 21/09/2021 18:23

I thought by Chippy you meant a carpenter...... I thought lucky Coleen!

reallyworriedjobhunter · 21/09/2021 18:27

I saw a documentary about him a while ago and he did have a little museum in his house with all his memorabilia on display.

BrilloPaddy · 21/09/2021 18:37

Nothing would surprise me with those two.

Ponoka7 · 21/09/2021 18:40

He lived on sausage barms out of the chippy as a teen, chips wasn't really his thing, so I doubt it. He invested and bought houses for people, so I think it's a case of Chinese whispers.
