    My local chippy does fantastic meatballs in gravy. They really are the dog's bollocks.

    When I was a lad there was a chippy called Stratos, quite often went in and ask him if there was any spare scratchings, he'd scoop up the batter that fell off the fish and put it on a piece of newspaper. No charge

    Sad to say that Good Pie Mr Chips no longer exists - like A Fisn called Rhondda in Treorchy (there’s still one in Pentre), it has had a change of name to something much more bland. When I first moved up here, I had Fish and Chips from Good Pie Mr Chips on my first night in my new house and I wasn’t long n getting some from a Fish called Rhondda as well, but, in truth, both chippies were nothing special - there’s at least two up here that I think are a lot better than them.

    The Cod's pollocks in Northwich.

    I live to see the day when a chippy is called 'Never Mind the Pollocks'.

    I recall seeing one in South London called "The Rock and Sole Plaice"


    Do chippies still do "rock salmon", sometimes called Huss, but was actually dogfish, a member of the shark family.

    Shipley is not between Bradford and Leeds. It's NNW of Bradford. Leeds is east of Bradford. Pudsey, Farsley, Rodley and Calverley are the places between Bradford and Leeds.

    It's like saying Pontypridd is between Cardiff and Newport.

    My brother lives in Shipley and has done for 25 years. It's on the up thankfully after years of decline.

    I think you are splitting hairs there

    Bradford and Leeds literally merge into each other

    There is 10 miles of countryside between pontypridd , Cardiff and Newport

    West Yorkshire and in particular the Leeds Bradford metropolitan area is one huge blob and when I lived in Shipley people would either go into Bradford for sports, entertainment and shopping

    It's a town between the two big urban centres

    If you were saying Otley or Ilkley are similar to ponty then I would agree with you

    Nice canal in Shipley, great fishing

    You don't know it yet, but you, your brother and the maps of Great Britain are ALL wrong.

    Sludge has never been wrong in his life, about anything. It'll get spun.

    Just bought fish and chips for the first time in ages, mainly because they are cash only and I've never got any.

    £9.90 for a large fish and chips. It's not too long back, probably pre covid that the same place charged either 5 or £6.50 so that is some mega jump up in price.

    The day you admit you're wrong, or learn to read a map, whatever one comes first.

    It works like this

    You walk into the chippy

    Choose jumbo battered sausage and chips

    Then you can add curry sauce

    That will be 7 quid please dembe


    That sort of thing
