Love the idea of the 'drag-in'. There's sometimes quite the quota of compromise when a couple goes out to dine... though don't think I've ever cussed or cursed my way through a meal, or sat on Charlotte's knee. Although I think we mainly liked the same things. I hope you chose that clutch bag well.
I have to agree with Mazza . Paul was already saying he'd be hungry afterwards before we'd got there. Half way through the starter he was asking when we could come again! Unfortunately that was never to be🥹. I agree about those complainers though. We get them at the shop. Ready for a fight as they walk through the door. That was when wearing masks came in handy you could whisper things without them hearing🤭😂😂
Ah yes, takes me back to our 1* Tripadvisor review ‘A Deli With No Food’ … Saturday afternoon, cakes sold (yay, not open Sunday so a result for no waste) … what they meant was no ‘convenient’ food. If they’d lingered I’d have offered a cheese and charcuterie board, ingredients straight off the shelf from our handpicked stock … but fortunately Greggs had salads, cokes, and sausage rolls. All good.
Yesterday I intervened in what I now understand to be our local equivalent of Bridges and Tunnels. The festive version.
Haha, I’m not going to comment.
I may have been responsible for some of those later Drag Ins… but most of them quickly turned into converts.
Well that’s a relief.

Oh they were painful, always took it out on staff. The clutch bag was beautiful. Thanks for reading Matt, you’re a trooper.

Yes people often came in with that notion.
I think you swore at me behind your mask once.
Oops!! Sorry not sorry 😂😂
Tony’s the one really running the show.
No, you are.
Those wines were chosen expertly and I never had a complaint with any of them 🤩
Rudding park night will always stay with me, such a brilliant memory and scrubbed up well - even if it took 2 week 🤣 cheek of it Andrew!
Hehe. You’re the best Tricky.
Love toni
That knee thing, eew. Some people are just very, very strange.
That’s what we thought at the time.
Vanilla Black as a culinary holiday destination, impressive!
I think it was Chris Evans
Don’t forget your toothbrush.
Off the top of my head, wasn't it (Don't forget your toothbrush) also the title of an Ant and Dec TV show?
I remember Jim feeling ‘tricked’ when I didn’t tell him where were we’re going for dinner, after your bubble and squeak he was your biggest fan!
Ahhhhh you see. Jim the Drag In.

Haha, good old Greggs. Probably a better option for them.
The perfect place. We had our kind of customers and some folk who would never get us. And that’s just fine!
Exactly
