yeah, some stuff is supposed to be a delicacy isn't it. Sheeps brains and all that. I can't even stand the sight of liver. Suppose years ago those cuts of meat were only what they could afford. catherine xx Remember faggots? weren't they sheeps brains or something else? The name turns me off.lol.

I agree Sunshine there were only good old fashioned English ones, proper chippies in them days always remember mum saying stick your head out the front door and see if the chippie is open, cos it was at the top of our street. She tell you what she wanted then, when you asked could you have some chips she would say no you can have some of mine. LOL every thursday night which was pay day was chippie night for mum.
