I nearly didnae watch it,brilyent.
Lining of a sheep's stomach? Yuk... but fish and chips sounds good.
AAAHHHH.... chocolate, how could you do without? No choice makes for a sad withdrawal. :--(
My local chippie charges £1.60 for a portion of chips and £4.50 for a fish!!!

Beautiful country and love the accent but the cuisine?......mmmm leaves much to be desired. This is from only one example so who am I to complain?
Bannock is especially nice. I used to make it a lot, before I found out that I was lactose-intolerant!
But if there's one (of several) things that I miss about the United Kingdom, it's the food. Can't beat fish and chips on the seafront, nor bangers and mash in the morning. Nor a chocolate eclair (which I now cannot have). Fish and chips... fish and chips... fish... *mouth waters* chips... NOM.
As I mentioned some time ago, fish and chips were much much better when wrapped in newspaper, when newspaper was made illegal and new fresh white paper had to be used, the fish and chips never tasted the same.
Another treat I loved from the chippy was sausage in batter and chips with a pickled onion then smothered in lots of salt and vinegar, if we were very lucky we also got a lot of batter that fell off the fish during frying mixed in with the chips.
I remember when I was a kid a portion of chips cost 4 old pennies, then it went up to a tanner (6 old pennies). Horror, gosh, a 50% price increase. I dread to think how much it costs nowadays.
