Nando's

[Tuna]

Saw a quote recently attributed to Elmore Leonard "When you write, try to leave out all the parts readers skip" Wish George R.R. Martin had heeded this advice. For my tastes he spent too long describing everything, especially the all the different family standards.

Edit: Should say I did enjoy the books

What's your opinion on Tolkien then?

HAHAHA very much the same. What's with the songs and the language no one can read?

Over rated- the wire

Under rated- brainiac

Over-rated things: Daft Punk.

How very dare you?

[Slugworth]

Then you may have not had good Jerk

Probably not. Willing to give it another go though.

What does this mean? I googled it and it makes no sense to me.

Shit thread

Shit food

KFC for folks with far too much time on their hands.

I know, you'd have to at least remove the beak and the feathers. Who wants feathers in their burger?!

Exactly!

And more money than sense

Do any of you put mayo on your chicken? If so, let me know so I can stick you on the ignore list for the rest of your life.

Mayo is horrific. Every supermarket meal deal for me is either a case of defaulting to a 'safe' option (Hoi Sin Duck wrap being the #1) or wasting time reading ingredients, usually resulting in things being slammed back down on the shelf.

"These are for you, Nal!"

I genuinely hope not and can't see it happening. Glastonbury is one of the last bastions of hope against the commercialisation of festivals. Having a Nando's would be akin to seeing a McDonalds Express popping up at The Park. Fuck. That.

I swear they used to have a Gourmet Burger Kitchen (chain restaurant) stand by the other stage. Not been there for a while tho.

The only thing I liked about v fest was the ability to get a large Domino's on the way back out of the arena At under a tenner it was a bargain.... dinner and breakfast in one!

I know exactly the van you mean, it caught me out as well at first glance as well. From what I remember it was there about 5 years ago, maybe a shade more. It definitely wasn't GBK, just a bog standard burger van trading off a variant of their name - think it had all the same words, just in a different order.

Bestival had GBK and it was shit. Proper shit

[let's 'ave it!!!]

On the subject of chicken, is there anywhere on site where you can pick up some proper southern fried chicken? I don't recall seeing any!

The jerk stalls are great, always end up going there 2/3 times a year, never seen the one in Shangri-La mind!

Now GBK, that IS over rated and over priced, their burgers are so average. Do quite like their extra skinny fries though

[Tyonks]

Will never understand the fuss over Nando's. I also question the apparent cheekiness of having one.

[Badlands]

There's a pub up here in Gosforth called the Brandling Arms which does a tremendous selection of burgers. One particular monster is the 'dirty thoughts of Cheryl Cole'. It includes a Greggs Sausage Roll and Heinz Beans within it.... Byrons it's not, which is no bad thing!!

[Spindles]

Sounds good. I've got all the time in the world for supporting original businesses, none whatsoever for pretending that the cookie cutter experience of chain restaurants represents anything other than eating cheap processed food.
