We have been sup...@ John (I ♥ old cameras): I know! We have been super lucky - I have not had bad fish and chips since I've been back in the UK but my poor brother has!<br /><br />@ John (Daily Photo): Really???? I wish I had known that before - Saint Catherine's Down must be quite high up then! I'll have to go back - I would really like to see that.<br /><br />@ Hels: It was really lovely! I never thought about that, about food tasting better by the sea but you are probably right!<br /><br />@ Ash: heh! It was!<br /><br />@ Buggys: I agree - I loved the nautical theme everywhere.<br /><br />@ Kathy: Haha - "mushy" is not posh enough - they called it a "pea puree"!<br /><br />@ Jen: The pea puree had such a lovely pea taste! It was yummy.<br /><br />@ Missy: ha! I like food more than food photos!<br /><br />@ Ellen: It was a good day indeed!<br /><br />@ Martyn: I agree! Nothing bland about a steak and ale pie or a plowman's lunch either!<br /><br />@ Ivanhoe: Hope you had a good easter too!<br /><br />@ Ratty: I quite like boats and ferries actually. I'm usually okay on them. I've been on skippers on the Thames and the Hudson River and I liked them too. I would <i>love</i> to go on one of those steamers up the Mississippi one day!<br /><br />@ Jill C: It was lovely! I consider fish and chips to be among the more healthy of my favourtie fast foods.<br /><br />@ The Ancient Digger: No - it didn't rock at all thankfully. It was an eerie looking day, wasn't it? And then it was all sunshine when we got to Isle of Wight!<br /><br />@ Gauteng: Really? Franchises are a great idea - my friends Dad used to train people in how to run them.<br /><br />@ JaPRA: You have to visit that place - I think you would have liked its homely vibe.Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931248631361366673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757405063506888257.post-80396828653314708972010-04-12T21:39:36.788+01:002010-04-12T21:39:36.788+01:00Those chips look AMAZING!
