Two shops together


Harbour side and Barbican fish shops you try both and see (taste) the different.


Best one for me in Plymouth  Perillas

Benbow street chippy off albert road aint to bad

In my younger days (45 years ago) we used them, A large chip feed all the family.

It still does today portions are still massive

Used that chippy a few times when I was working in the docky, jeez the portions were huge, made you feel sleepy all afternoon [just right for we dockies, some might say ].Nice to know that it still has that reputation, may try it one day if in the Devonport area.

Fancy having a large portion of chips from Benbow along with a giant pastie from old Rons

You get a lot of Panga in Spain. Not the nicest fish I've ever tasted.

Anyway,on a different matter, I see Exeter are waiving their right to their share of the gate money when they play Torquay in a friendly, to help them out in their financial struggles.

Would be a nice gesture if PAFC did the same. I wonder if they will?

I'm sure Brent will do the same

Foxy, any chance your lot can let him have some paint

tomorrow night's game is free to listen too on argyle world if you fancy it. you could dig deep into your freezers and find some youngs fish and some chips to cook to join with experience

Tonight Angry?

correction tomorrow night.

so you have time to nip to asda if there is nothing in the freezer.

It the grandson choice for a fish supper and he would like to sit on the sea front, Babbacombe cliff over looking Lyme Bay is the favorite.


Hanbury's or Drakes?

'Mariners' is good for chish and fhips.

I doubt very much Jimmy's bucket rattlers will raise money for Exeter. They are too busy trying to raise money for the youth team and kits for the staff aren't they ? We will probably have more chance of seeing the Grandstand rebuilt guys lol

It's not for Exeter Kelshacks. It's Exeter helping out Torquay by allowing Torquay to keep Exeter's share of the gate money.
Surely the fine gentleman will do the same won't he ?

Yea my mistake, I meant Torquay sorry. And yes, it would be the decent honourable thing to do, but since when does Jimmy do anything decent and honourable ?

Yeah how disgraceful was that ? I wonder how much he pocketed from the university for having their names on the shirts this season eh ? Why doesnt Jimmy just donate that to Torquay ? You can bet your a$$ that was a six figure sum straight in Jimmys back pocket

Five figures, probably.....Six figures, not a chance.

Lets be honest, Jimmy likes a free donation ( Ground Maintenance Youth team etc) i'm sure he could help out Torquay in their hour of need with a short term loan at favourable rates.

lol not today Argyle are totally skint themselves and rely heavily on handouts so we cant afford to split the match gate let alone give it all on top of monthly rent too Torquay.

sad but true

No room for sympathy or favours. The fact that our country is broke and yet our government continue to send cash to all and sundry does not mean our footy club should do the same. IF our club had spare cash then there are far better ways of using it. Bus shelters in Swilly come to mind.

Quite the opposite young man. Bus shelters are what Swilly gals and beh's use for protection
