The electricity was off at my place for most of the day (DIY).
So late afternoon we decided on a fish and chip tea. It was ok I suppose but I have to say was not happy with the price.
2 pieces of fish, 2 portions of chips and one battered sausage.......£11.80.
I think it will be a long time before I go for that again.

I like junk food myself, Im a lowly affionado of the genre, but I too have noticed the hike in prices. Its now just as cheap near as dammit to go sit in one of those big chains like the Duke of York or Kittiwake or the Premier Inn even, where you get two full meals for a Tenner (£10).

And the fish is bigger - haddock or plaice, the chips are better (crispy on the outside, not mush all through) and you can wash it down with a nice glass of wine or beer.

There's a chippy on Harbour Street in Whitstable that is pure magic, cod and chips and mushy peas are just over a fiver but feed two, cooked to order in dripping and are just sooo good

If you can make it down the stairs, you'd best come to Blakes then Alec.

If Alec is like me going down is not so bad it is coming up again that is the problem, even without the alcohol.

We find that people coming down on sticks often gambol back up again without them after a scotch or two!

Peter, will try and get down the stairs Sunday lunch after church. I will be attending the Herald Remembrance service at St. Mary's at 11 am. Not been down since Bill Avery's funeral.
