Do you mean chips in the USian sense - wafer thin crispy things (we call them crisps) or what we call chips- like fat french fries? If it is the latter they are better if fried in the same oil as the fish as they take the taste better. Even better if they are both cooked in beef dripping.

That's pretty harsh, poor loser?
Along with Antimatter and Dark Matter they've discovered the existence of Doesn't Matter which appears to have no effect on the universe whatsoever!

Damn, I was so moved I didn't bother to search. Ahh well. It deserves to be reposted.

I got off at Gateshead once, pretty dangerous game to play that.

I went to a chip shop in Gateshead many years ago. Lad I was with asked for a battered sausage. Serving woman (think it was a woman) looked at him and said "bastard sausage?". When telling the locals this story back in the office they suggested his response should have been "Aye, and some f***ing chips.".
Another time in the same chip shop I asked for sausage and chips to be told it would be a few minutes as there were no sausages battered. I said it was ok as I didn't want batter. This was met with "No batter! I won't charge you for the sausage then.".
Strange place Gateshead.

Wow. How heartless and incompassionate.

Wow, I cannot believe that some of the most beautiful classical music pieces were not on that play list. Pathetic, IMO.

It still surprises me how many people have no interest whatsoever in classical music - maybe I am a snob, however I do appreciate both J.S.Bach(off to hear the St. Matthew Passion at Kings College Chapel in a few days) and Metallica so I think that's unlikely.

Indeed, Metallica wrote their music as composers.

fair play to her! Its great too see someone experience for the first time something that most of us take for granted daily.
I'm going the opposite way been losing my hearing slowly since i was 17, but am lucky that i only need 1 hearing aid at the moment.

Does the US not have laws against using your mobile phone when you're driving?

Everything's legal as long as you don't get caught.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Yes, of course, but for making calls and texting, not for recording video/audio or using the GPS-based navigation aids.

That seems odd - I'd imagine that recording a video of another driver is at least as distracting as talking to someone.

Agreed, just pointing out the "law".
