Whitestar Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Back in the 80s when i probably last used a train, Euston (probably other London stations too) not Waterloo though, had burger vendors called Casey Jones , they were top drawer burgers and not expensive either. Manchester Piccadilly had one as well. Happy days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Match is a place for pasties, burgers and chips; and it that context on a cold day they are lovely. Not to be knocked. Sitting on the backseat of a travel coach with some sort of trying faux-decent morrisons picnic hamper marks one out as nouveau riche and someone who certainly thumbs plastic lawn catalogues of a weekend whilst bottling up the sweaty anxeity of a parvenu, hoping they don't fall back into the fast food fandom of those they consider of the lower orders from whence they came. Cured meats do not maketh the man. You’re only upset because you didn’t think of it first. You delight in snootily telling the rest of us that you are a culturally superior man-about-town; a haughty, well-heeled popinjay who is a cross between Warhol, Oscar Wilde and Picasso. Doubtless there are a small number of minuscule cogs in the wheels of Theatreland in London who you have duped into believing you to be a northern dandy; a bisexual luvvie with an eye for floral shirts and a bookshelf full of barely decipherable but achingly cool authors. Well you don’t fool me, sonny. You’re northern scum. Cuban heels and androgynous affectations do not maketh one the Queen of Shaftesbury Avenue.

I'll have you know its all painters shirts, leather desert boots and distressed and ironic stonewashed jeans nowadays. Anyway, I'm off to Marylebone this morning to take in some Russian money and then be sneery at non progressive liberal types in Islington this afternoon. What a time to be alive.

Marc505 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 This thread gave me a craving for KFC for a couple of days so went tonight. I cancelled and got a refund for my order 37 minutes after I entered it according to the screen, stood around in the restaurant watching them dither about, fucking joke. Completely understaffed, the ones they've got are all kids who don't give a fuck and it's all totally imbalanced towards Deliveroo type collections, all their effort goes into that. Was looking forward to that too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All will be glad to know that Euston Burger King was spot on btw. With compulsory cans from Sainsbury’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They then recruit their staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chicken at a non-halal KFC is from the same chicken farm and abattoir route as at the halal KFC. The only difference is the halal restaurant does not also have pork products on the menu.
