    First John Bull I ever had was at the chippy at the bottom of Shorrock Lane, Mill Hill in about 1990, glad to see they are still going strong.
    Holly tree tree chippy is/was (not been for years) great also.

    Hi Matt, is now been 2 years since the infamous chicken cottage review. Please can you go back to another chicken cottage branch to see if it can redeem itself. We need some of these standard bossman chicken/kebab shops and fast food spots mixed in from time to time as they produced some of the most memorable, funny and iconic FRC moments!
    Im not saying every week but at least once every 2 months it would be good to see those places sprinkled into the mix.
