Standby Chippies?


I like the show so far, but this new category appeared in the credit crawl.

Pleaase reassure me that you cousins haven't declined to that extent.

Well sometimes you just have to have chips.
If this was a Scottish production the standby chippies would not just sell chips,they would sell deep fried pizza(which exist)deep fried mars bars (which did not exist until some reporter invented them)cat food,condoms,jars of coffee,firelighters,coal,indeed anything you might want to buy.
I don't know why chip shops in England just sell chips,fish and weird pies.
In Scotland they sell everything,and are often run by real Italians.

We say waiters/gofers/craft services table/vendors.

How dare the UK have a different lexicon.

STANDYBY CHIPPIES,means STANDBY CARPENTERS,a chippy is also a fish and chip shop.
CHIPPY is a slang term for carpenter.
My post was a joke but I still the cultural icon that is the Scottish chip shop.

deep fried mars bars on 24hr standby

trashing books is like the Special Olympics even if you win & burn them all you are still a retard.

reply

I don't think deep fried mars bars really existed until some chip shop owner made one for a journalist but certainly deep fried pizza are commonly available.
A chip shop in England has such a small range of stuff to buy is like East Germany under communism compared to the huge choices available in Scotland.
