In Australia you could pick up a a 1/4 chicken and chips pretty cheap too. I haven't seen anything in the UK like at that yet.

Last place I worked where I lived up in NE Lincolnshire was like that. Not only was it a cruddy little town. the town was quite depressing and had nothing close by to us. So in hindsight, here is not so bad compared to there, but still not as good as the centre of London.

I worked on terminal 5 at Heathrow and we were airside in a corner the other side of the 2nd runway so completely away from the main complex. Once you were on site there was no point leaving as it took too long to get anywhere.

This makes me really hungry ;-)

Well, I think I'll leave now. See what I can get to eat.

Too small a form factor. Buy a portable bluetooth speaker

Jawbone Jambox speaker is a good choice - quite small but an impressive sound quality and volume

You tried the supermarkets? Most do a whole hot roast chicken for ?5. Pick up a baguette for ?1 and split it between 3 people - good food for ?2 each.

I picked up a cheap portable bluetooth speaker from Tesco for ?34 which is actually half decent. Charges via USB. Half decent sound for what we use it for.

Yes of course but it's 'not the same'. LOL!

Also don't really have two other people to share it with.

Does Australian chicken taste different then?

No I'm sure the chicken is the same but it's kind of like the difference between having fish and chips by the sea and having them somewhere else. To explain. It's a 'charcoal' chicken shop. They basically do chicken and chips. Some do some other things. It's cheap, quick and tasty. Also liberal doses of chicken salt is used.

OK now that's different and explains "not the same"

I've worked in one remote plant in Australia and near an airport at a construction site. The remote plant had a canteen though you wouldn't want to eat anything from it. The nearest petrol station had a canteen which was marginally better than the one at the plant. At the airport I lived close to it but everything was sort of close by so you could drive to somewhere. It had a canteen as well on site but again the food quality was what you'd expect. I typically took my lunch to both.

Yeah on site canteens are never good

Re: WPC 20K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

I'm tired. But I have to dance to night, I must dance.

Somehow this brings the Phantom of the Opera music to my mind...

Edit: I just realized why my brain made a connection to the Phantom of the Opera. It's totally weird and has nothing to do with anything.

Even my current canteen is what I would call 'average'. I rarely eat anything from it and when I tried stuff I was disappointed. I only get sandwiches from there on days I can't be bothered bringing my lunch. Sad, since I have sandwiches every day.

My brain brought up Phantom of the Opera randomly. That's not my fault, and also, I write about my dance course for a while now ;-)
