Fish and Chips

Neither Yvonne or indeed me could be bothered cooking tonight
So in a moment of inspiration
I picked up my phone
And phoned the Chip Shop 200 yards along the road
I ordered a Fish Supper for me
And a Macaroni Pie supper for Yvonne
And 10 minutes later the food arrived
I am so glad that we both could not be bothered cooking
Can you be bothered cooking.
Will you phone a takeaway

@Ineeddentures Leftovers come in handy when one is off mood for cooking

It's a Jumbo Haddock
Costs a bit more than a Standard Haddock
But well worth it

Order in food?
Not feeling like cooking?
Oh Raquel see in the summer months, I feel like that a lot.
It's a costly feeling

I remember my days living in NYC there was a fish shop that made some of the very best fish and chips,

When my relatives do not want to cook a meal, a phone call or a pickup order to the Domino's Pizza store is in the works.

What a strange thing to refuse extra money for.
You would think they would have welcomed the offer

Wow one street to far
That seems strange lol
I know here they have like 2 mile limit but if it's a couple of hundred yards extra they will do it

@Ineeddentures I've used it and found it to be almost twice the cost when all is said and done. It's convenient. But I just don't want to pay the extra. At least with the pizza and the Chinese I pay a small delivery fee and tip, but the cost is the same as in the store.

I don't blame you for not paying the extra fees.
They only charge £2 for delivery here
It's not a bad service to be fair

I would prefer to go out for a meal as well
But we do not have many we can go out to
But we do have lots of take aways

Yes dear, I also did of what you are doing, "cause it takes time of cooking while everybody are tired and need food. We can call an order here by calling the riders of Panda for McDonalds food that we ordered, also Jollibee treats here, some French fries and chicken nuggets that we love to eat too.

That's one of my favourite meals right there especially when you add some chilly sauce.
