Must admit I have been to Kingfisher myself a few times, cant pass without grabbing a fish butty there top stuff, and fellow Quality Award Holders.

We use beef dripping too, the only way to properly cook fish and Chips if you ask me.

So which one are you then mate? Are you NFFF members? Im a training course tutor there.

Not heard of Barracuda, but I use George-a-green. all the time now. Great owners with great banter (really nice to walk in to any shop where they know your name after a few visits and you just chat like mates....) and the F&C are excellent. They also won an award for 'best shop in bloom'.. they like their flowers.

I'm not really a fan of the Wetherby Whaler.... has the totally opposite feel to the George-a-green as does Kingfisher. I prefer something a little more quiet, understated and less 'commercial' if you know what I mean.

Where are you Matt?

How long you had the plaice (geddit? )

Used to go there quite a bit until I moved out of Ryhovercraft last Septober.

Lovely fish

And you have the cheek to question my IQ?

That mate is 9 on the Dim scale.
The scale only has 5, so I think you've got a win there chap...

Nothing to do with the fact that there's bugger all in the wallet anyway

And there's a difference between forgetfulness (guilty as charged) and being a thick, ugly, innumerate Brummie (Not that I know any of those)

...and you'd know gorgeousness as being the antithesis of everything that your lovely wife tells you about yourself...

(To save you using vital Google resources, that means yer still ugly)

Sounds good (apart from the fact that you're going too)

I'll confirm times when the nurse gets home (Could be either Tracy or my carer, depends who gets here first so don't hog the carer for too long, she has other appointments you know)

Just look at you 2 banging on Mr Forgetfulness with an annoying albeit strangely infectious midland impediment, a wealth and a full lifetime of experience that out way his physical years albeit not his physical face, and Mr Longman with an arguably chiselled jaw line, his thorough and meticulous dissection of threads and the written word that can only be compared to i’spell or maybe that **** English teacher at school who was ever so slightly annoying.

Anyway I digress just go get some fish and chips and sort the rest out in the car park, if you need me to ajudicate start you thread, Dear Stud

Sticky... My car's in the garage Saturday morning (blown door actuator.. all doors apart from drivers deadlocked shut... long story... won't bother you with the details...)

Means I'll be going over in the Pug.. Probably better if we see you there at 6:30?rather than you trying to keep up with me in the 1.2?

Raf.... Thank you for your generosity and welcome. It was great to see you again mate and you have a lovely place there.

Regardless of us knowing you, that was one of the best F&C meals we've had for a very long time, without a doubt a top 3 fish cooked to perfection and you justly deserve the award.

We'll definitely be back and I heartily recommend everyone take a trip over or stop off if you're passing through Farsley...

Look forward to see you in a week for a quick spin....

We didn't make it.

Excuses (in no particular order)

Been working solidly since 6am
Phone bust
Didn't finish work until 5pm
Got home and was presented with a fantastic pressie in the shape of a shiny new iPhone, which of course I had to play with, set up, drool over, go "wow" several times, etc, etc.

We will get over soon Raf.

Al, sorry I missed your calls & texts. I'm not dead so you can't have the PS3 or the iPhone, and as for the other thing we were negotiating over... After careful consideration, and a fantastically well recieved acceptance of my gratitude last night, it ain't for sale. EVER!
