Just heard someone say chips and fish. I've never felt so irritated, I'll fetch them some vinegar and salt. Or perhaps they want pepper and salt.

@kibcol1049

I remember when chippy Meat and Potato pies became Potato and Meat pies

Apparently the largest ingredient by volume had to come first

@kibcol1049 @PGBeattie linguistically it should be the most valuable first rather than what there is most of - that’s why fish and chips, steak and kidney, gold and silver, gin and tonic etc.

@seb321 @kibcol1049 @PGBeattie Ah - need more "Hitchhikers' Guide"...

Apparently "Jynnan Tonnyx" is/are a very popular form of refreshment throughout the galaxy πŸ˜€

(And yes I know, yer man's dead now but I would have loved to have read his take on "Steak & Kidney Pies" :-) )

Even more popular than ouizgian zodas.

@mysturji Goodness, I'd forgotten about those...

"ouizgian zodas" are wonderful, in the right place...

@bytebro
That would be a glass, in front of me. πŸ₯ƒ
