Would anyone trust takeaway food at the moment?

I know buying stuff from the supermarket still has risks, but you're more in control of the final product as opposed to having ready made food dropped on your doorstep.

And I write this as someone who loves a weekly KFC.

Yep been having fish and chips once a week. I neutralise any virus with a layer of mushy peas.

At last a sensible answer. 😂

Coincidentally, on my stroll earlier I noticed our local chippy is still open with barriers to queue along outside, although it was never that good in the first place so I'm not tempted.

Lucky you, our chippy has been closed for about a month now.

Our normal one is closed but another is open. You ring your order ahead then head down to wait outside. Verdict is that chips and mushy peas better than our usual but fish not as good. Generous portions. Yep lucky this one has stayed open. Family run so at least they can staff it well enough.

Ours is family run too, same with the Chinese next door to it. Don't quite understand why neither of them open for phone orders.

I should think Chinese take aways are getting a hard time of it now.

The one about 60 yards from my flat is up for sale. They're probably jumping the gun and trying to sell it before the lockdown is lifted,expecting a big drop in customers. I've only been in once. I called in one night to buy fish and peas. The owner asked me to pay up front,which i found a bit offensive. Then when i got home and saw the fish it looked like one of those pack of 4 battered ones they sell frozen in supermarkets for about 3 quid. It was probably about the size of 5 fish fingers and cost(the peas were 50p for about a spoonful) £3.50!!

Home schooling today after the Easter break. Boy 1 has forgotten absolutely everything he has ever learned. 4 times 6? Dunno. Hmm, 6 plus 6? Er... 13?

My nearest chippy is about 460 miles away.

We’re all just starting to get on each other’s nerves, the divorce rate will go up when the lock down finishes.

What do you fancy? I've got a strong throwing arm.
