Yeah, but the beef isn't nearly as good as ours, IMO.

Sign says it all -- but maybe it shouldn't?

3! I'll never forget eating Fish and Chips wrapped in newspaper whilst standing in pouring rain by the side of a bank in Edinburgh, Scotland! It was the BEST Fish and Chips I'd ever eaten. What a sweet memory! 139!

Bobbie, I looked high and low for a place that sells fish 'n chips in newspaper, but never found one. I guess I kind of gave up. I have had jellied eels though! The fish at this place in Blackpool was cheap, but mediocre taste-wise. Isn't Edinburgh great?

I love that memory of yours Bobbie. It sounds like a moment I would surely enjoy. The newspaper went out due to hygiene, right?

I didn't know you could get bad fish and chips in England. Is it possible?

Oh yes, it is possible. You can get just about any kind of bad food you want in England.

Cute cartoon! His chips are a bit soggy. Maybe some vinegar would help--or Marmite?
