I like Mash potato irish fashion, with spinach and stuff.

Ortakot Jacket-Spuds are the best. I want some Kumpir now

You lot are teribble. You want that deep fried? Did you ever read that article about the most unhealthy food ever? It's a pork sausage in special sauce wrapped in doner meat and deep fried. You can only get it in Scotland.

Yeah, when I was a uni, we came up with the idea for the end of an eveing cocktail, which was basically a donner, a pint of Stella and a Jack and Coke all blended up into one easily drinkable smoothy.

I sense a gourmand like Henry would prefer a 1787 Chateau Lafite and a pot of Beluga caviar blended with his doner.

Henry first visited France as a college student. Didn't you? He had a chance to look at the Seine and hear how it is pronounced there. Wink

Oh dear Henry. You seem to have picked up Ghostiutus. I don't know what the remedy is. Maybe start a few irrelevant threads and you'll be OK. But then you might catch dmbitus..... and that I fear is a fate worse than death.

Seine is pronounced to rhyme with reine. Cool

thriftitus actually sounds like a proper disease.

What do you reckon it is? An allergy to chip vans or an allergy to EFL?
