Pitting Douglas (warning - half-hearted)

The BBQ Pit
1

Douglas is the Capital ‘city’ of the Isle of Man. I am pitting it because I am NEVER satisfied with what I end up getting for my work lunch.

On a good day there’s the pie shop, Marks & Spencer, and KFC.

Pie shop

Crap.

Marks & Spencer

“Sandwich maker of the year”? Bollocks.

KFC

chicken in a bun, chicken in a wrap, chicken in a bucket, chicken in a box.
Sorry for inflicting this feeble rant on you, I did warn you.

You got one of those new-fangled supermarkets on that little island of yours Lobbers?

Go and buy some nice stuff in the deli section (y’know, like ham or other savoury meats) and a tomato and some decent cheese and whack it on a nice baguette.

There’s yer lunch, half the price of take-away and much yummier.

I went to the Isle of Man once.

It was closed.

It’s closed for refurbishment. Come back in a year.
