I know what you mean.

I went to DQ last week with my mates and everyone was so stuffed but we still had a dish of chips; when someone suggested eating them everyone went 'urrrrrrrrrghhhhhhh no' but sure enough by midnight we were all starving and in need of sustinence.

Kebabs round my way are generally a very risky business... You're drunk, you eat one. You spend 3 days shitting through the eye of a needle.

The one round the corner from me is fab; I never worry about things being fresh as the place is always so massively busy that nothing there has time to sit around long. Plus I know it is very clean as I would go past there in the mornings to get the bus and they always had all the equipment pulled away from the walls and there'd be 3 guys in there cleaning away like mad. Even black cab drivers have told me when I give them my address "Oh you've got a brilliant kebab place up your way." Best in Norf London, I tell ye.

don't knock chips and cheese until you try it! it's all good. i haven't had it since my grad ball where they put, um, slightly off cheese on the chips though and it made me pretty ill. chips and cheese should only be consumed when horrifically drunk. in edinburgh you can get chips and 'special sauce', which thousands of men have died trying to find out the recipe for. it's just watered down more vingegar-y broon sauce. delish.

What kind of fish are we talking here? I like a good cheap piece of flake; one end overdone; the other soggy and not unlike watered down mashed potato.

Big Gus

02-24-2007, 05:19 AM

In your "average" chippy you just get haddock or cod. It's done best for me when it's nice and flakey and moist, not like mashed potatoes! And nice crisp batter.

In better places you can get all sort of fish. Plaice. Sole.

The whole "Scotland Deep Fried Mars Bars" thing is a bit of a myth around here. The nearest one to me is about 40 miles away. Things like white puddings, smoked sausages, king ribs and fritters are popular in chippies here.

na§tee

02-24-2007, 05:23 AM

or deep fried pizzas, gus. you forgot them. scott used to eat them all the time! :/ barf.

a great chippy round here has loads of fish available - salmon, plaice, (lemon!) sole, whatever takes your fancy. scallops, even.

i can't believe i'm talking about food already. i had a lion bar for breakfast and a bottle of lucozade (colleague: "just for the added vitamin boost, eh?"). i'm sort of delirious.

i've never had a deep fried mars bar. you have to provide your own, and then they fry it in the same batter all the fish and meat and chips and been fried in. no thanks!

Well, i didnt actually buy the T tickets, my mate did, and i'm beginning to question the authenticity of the site - seems a bit 50/50, as if they're taking orders and then going and buying tickets on Ebay to send to us. Still, i'm not giving her (my mate) the money til i see the ticket :p

It has gone total tits up i suppose but there's some genuinely good bands on, plus headliners are always pish and i quite fancy bottling MCR. Only joking kids!!

PLUS, nae luck nastee! I also now hate the library because it has TWO FUCKING COPIES of CESMM when the 60 people on my course need it all at once. What's the deal with that? Actually i don't know why i'm complaining, up until a week ago i had both copies :D

Jack McPhee is quite good down on byres road. Although nothin beats little italy on a cold day :D

little italy is the bestest. i appreciate any place where you can order a slice of pizza with the most random of toppings on it. also, all the staff are incredibly attractive and pleasant. jack macphee is great, but it's a CHAIN. we gots to support the local establishments!

civil engineering standard methods of measurement eh? blame it on your department. they're meant to indicate how much demand certain texts on your essays lists are going to receive, and how many students will be doing the demanding.

i'm going to print out a replica of your matriculation card and steal your identity.

Can you see what i look like? I was very hungover on matriculation day, i almost forgot my yellow letter too.

And yes! That's what it is, apparently my department put in a call for more copies to be stocked and then told us that those 2 copies were reference only, and when i went to investigate they weren't! Scoundrels!!

Yes, Jack McPhee is a chain. Ok, erm, go for lunch in Vodka Wodka, they do nice soup. And the people are attractive there too. And they have lots and lots of vodka. Shouldn't you be working? I'm going to complain to the library guard who looks like a garden gnome about you!!

i can see your picture, aye! you told me your matric number or name last time we talked, remember? i shouldn't look at it, though, data protection and all that. i could get fired! please don't fire me, teh!

in vodka wodka it is always super busy but when i was a student they did a good line of baguettes mit frites. they also do a really awesome chocolate frijj based cocktail. don't go to those porn star aloof fuckers in brel, though. their overpriced belgian beer doesn't deserve your patronage. the best place on ashton lane is upstairs at the chip, no question. i may get an ashoka curry tonight. may. yum.

does anyone at lending and enquiries ever look like they are busy 100% of the time? nahhh. i get to piss about on t'internet in between serving you lot. and in between doing all the shitty pointless jobs i am convinced the daytime staff imagine up for us - like "how many books are in the adam smith library and replicated here?" "how many books begin with the letter 'C'?" "how many education students can you shoot point blank in the middle of the forehead with one fell swoop?" stuff like that.

Discuss.
By chips I am assuming that you are referring to what we call 'french fries' here in America.

I see your point, Base, but there really is nothing you can do about it. If you are not hungry enough to eat them all at once you might as well throw them away instead of trying to take them home because there is no such thing as reheating potatos. Once potatos have been sitting for a certain amount of time they acquier a taste that just cannot be explained (or digested).

A friend of mine at uni claims to have a cousin down south who worked in a factory where, amongst other things, they made this plastic wrapped pre-grated cheese. Anyway, him and his mate used to jack off into the cheese now and then based on the logic "If you can't grate your own cheese, you deserve to eat semen."

I'm not sure its true to be honest, but i'm suspicious of anything grated.

white lightning, pulse, frosty jack - all these white 'ciders' have absolutely no apples in them. just chemicals. they will make you blind.

r. was telling me yesterday that when he used to be a wee bit of an alky and poor at the end of the student year, they would buy a litre of pulse and white lightning for one pound each (you can also buy white lightning with ENERGY SHIT - woah!), down them and then go out and not really remember much. this is the boy who also took it upon himself to charitably drink 10 pints of guinness so he could collect all the vouchers for an inflatable chair his friend wanted. in one afternoon.

i had one glass - once - in a moment of desperation, and it made me a little CrAzY! scrumpy at least pretends to be made of apples, but it's not very tasty, in my humble cider opinion.

There is no monks! Well, there was monks. Now it's just bottled by Chandler and Co in an old abbey the Westcountry and shipped up here and sold at, fairly expensive for wine, prices. I could buy a nice bottle of red from Sainsburies for about a quid cheaper - but I just keep on buying Buckie.

I know it has a detrimental social side but people would just be drinking something else to those levels if thats all their life holds for them.

Used to be QC sherry up my way that was the tramps choice back in the day! Saying that I never see them drinking "Buckie" - they all sip from the "blue tin of jaicky" AKA Tennants Super.
