And Then, She’s Back...

   Well, so, the ‘news’ yesterday saw much panty wetting as it was dominated by the revelation that some young lady had finally got home after a six year holiday.
   Seems this holiday was a tad expensive at four hundred million and all I can say is I do hope she enjoyed the jolly and remembers to personally thank all us down here wot helped to pay for it. Try Trip Adviser next year girl, okay?
   In other ‘news’ I see co-co is creeping back towards top spot so one can safely assume there will soon be peace, of a kind, over the way.
   Out for lunch yesterday. We were there not many weeks ago and guess wot? Food for two up four pounds. I had a change and thinking it was Friday, ordered fish an’ chips. Pardon? Mushy peas? Of course.
   Anyhoo, when I ordered, the lady manning the computer called her assistant and inquired if it was just fish now with no choice offered between cod or haddock. This was confirmed to be the case.   
   When it arrived, I could eat it but it for sure wasn’t cod or haddock. Make a noise at the counter? Sir, you ordered fish and chips and fish and chips is wot you got.
   No idea wot it was but bet your ass it was a whole hell of a lot cheaper to buy-in than the two Brit favourites. Famine incoming I guess...
