The Retirement Thread

[Dirk]

Been to Bridgwater and bought some new motorcycle clobber.
Sun's come out - so I just had to have a maiden run on the Ajay.
Nipped out for about 10 miles around the lanes and a quick chuff up the A39 - where it cruised at 50mph quite comfortably. That'll do me.
I must change the tyres though!

I know that the Retirement thread regulars celebrate " Fish Friday "
I just missed my bus so popped into The Man in the Wall in Wimborne square. This is today's manager's special.

Ah, I've been veggie for going on 60 years so I didn't take up the offer. The sign made me think of the " Fih Friday " posts here and I thought it looked a bargain.

Sneaky sign!
Thought it was fish and chips for 2 quid until I read the small print.

What'd it cost?
Did it bring the price down to a more sensible amount?

To be honest I'd missed the small print, that's why I took the photo as it seemed an absoluter bargain. The Menu price is £9.70 with a soft drink, £11.17 with an alcoholic drink. Devious bar stewards !

Given that you get mushy peas or beans as well, the £2 off price isn't that bad.

often wondered do veggies have a special "go to " tasty meal they can conjure up without too much preparation , if you have one could you share the recipe ?
