Few weeks back I jibbed at paying £17.50 for a couple of portions of curry and chips in Crowborough. Yesterday I paid £11.00 for the same thing here in Eastbourne.
Curry and chips used to be a cheap snack. Ain't that any more. But £11.00 is a whole lot better than £17.50.
What does constitute a cheap snack these days? Not much. Nearest thing is probably a Big Mac only I don't eat meat....
I used to like a Big Mac. Won't pretend otherwise. The grandkids still think a trip to Macky D's (as they call it) is a treat.....
I didn't grow up eating fast food. We were Middle class and the chip shop was Working Class. Not for our kind. I don't think I crossed the threshold of one until I was 18 and away from home. Guy I was with had to tell me what to order. That was in Sheffield. Never looked back.....
