This evening.
Leo Burdock refuses to participate in Fish ‘n’ Chips Day [where chippers have been giving away their vinegar-laced wares for half price] on account of his name not ending in a vowel.
To the mattresses!

Everything. As It Happens.
Sure, Leo Burdocks isn’t Italian.
What would you expect?
Only the tourists go there.
The rest of us have copped on long ago.
True dat Bro
That’s grand.
Participated in year 1
Haven’t been back to the same chipper since
Come ta’think ov’ it now
Haven’t even order chipper fish since
Think of a fish finger dipped into a pillow
… and now I’m thinking that.
Yecghk
… a crusty pillow….
With some tepid cooking oil trapped in it. I’ve been there and ate it. I wasn’t going to chuck it in the bin after what I paid for it.
“Some Tepid Cooking Oil”
No
Daycent helping of the stuff
Was my experience
Like a chocolate liqueur, only not as nice?

Why would Leo Burdocks be a part of something for the members of The Irish Traditional Italian Chippers Association?
ah I miss the real Burdocks before they had the fire
coal-fired fryer and the best things fried in beef dripping and no doubt a year or two off my lifespan but just the best
current Burdocks just another chipper with some fancyarse signage & morkeshing, shame
3 quid chips and a tip jar.
True. Beshoff’s used to do a decent smoked cod as well, now it’s absolute muck.
Had some lovely fish and chips recently. In Wales :-(
Whales?
No the cuntry next to England.
England’s garden shed
not today or yesterday,lived in bride St nearby remember power cuts in the sixties only chipper open,candles along counter.best chips anywhere back then
It’s one of worst I’m Dublin anyway. Iv eaten in the original loads of times as a kid. As soon as the da died it went down hill.
Whatsa matter them, hey?
You gotta no respect?
I’ll take a guess that approximately 3.7 million people in Ireland don’t know about Leo Burdocks, and don’t give a sh*te about this.
It’s no Luigi’s either.
Sshhh, Anne
ha. No.
They give you loads of chips but they’re rotten and overpriced, the only decent thing about them is the vinegar. But you can buy that on it’s own.
Was in Rathmines LBs recently and ordered quarter pounder & chips. Handed out to me with five mins. Burger was as dry as a bone when I got home. Precooked and nuked in the microwave I reckon. Haven’t been back since. Beshoffs on Mespil road for best fish n chips.
Cheap-skates! Who are they codding?
You are a ray of light! Good grilling there and no chip on your shoulder whatsoever- they’re battered now
I also like the way you didn’t try to curry favour with them
Mind yerself Spag
Ya might end up battered
Or as salted
he needs to be put in his plaice
You’ll ketchup eventually.
I’m living vinegariously
Flexing your mussels are we??
So, shellfish? He’s only a prawn in our game Hoop
More than whelk-come to play.
Dont wanna pee you off and end up sleepin’ with the fishes
True he can come into our play- barnacle
20 squid he roes back.
I’d say he couldn’t caviar less
Beshoff not.
He’s bang to Wrights
Ah he can get the fuppin’ boat
Taking these puns littorally.
This the Net after all
But Leo does end in a vowel.
Whenever someone writes NOT in capital letters on a notice, I always imagine an old primary school teacher of mine who used to get quite angry.
