Yeah similar tale for me down south no Newcastle Brown or Vaux and not one decent portion of Cod N Chips south of Brum
Forget the smiley
Have you ever gone from the SW to the SE, WTF passes for water in the Thames valley !!!! its neat urine, There is no decent beer, they dont do real chips, they have burgers that have no meat in them. Chicken pies are supposed to have CHICKEN in them not a white slimey ooze, and stake pies are supposed to have steak from beef cattle in them not from some unchewable garbage imported from South America. Got nicer pretty wine bars and coffee shops though where you can buy 250 mm glass of cheap plonk for £6 a glass and blow a fiver on a coffee that tasts like creosote. At least us out in the SW and NE can make decent food and drink.
Lets not mention the Scots ........... Deep fried Marsbars, Vodka milk shakes, Fat N Gristle burgers....
