Idk who told you the luton fish bar is the place to go in luton for fish and chips. Literally like a 5 minute drive from there is the wigmore fish and chip shop which has won national awards and is by far the best fish and chips in luton, in all the years I've lived in luton I've seen maybe 3 people in that fish bar
You've got to be a special kind of stupid (or lazy) to have a guy come in doing UA-cam reviews and you toss him a sausage and saveloy that's been sitting in your warmer for three hours plus.
Ive lived in luton most of my life never heard anyone call this the best chip shop. When they were saying they have people cueing round the corner i was thinking they meant when chicken george was there as people would cue outside past this shop to get in there lol.
Apart from the road out of it is there anything good about Luton? Hope I never have any cause to go there ...very unusual to see a poor review they looked absolutely rank ....
I’m a Lutonian and I’ve never heard of that place! Miss Chicken George… now that’s tasty food! Should’ve tried Limbury. Gravy not a thing down Luton way lol.

Thats because its full of self entitled freeloader immigrants who take take take and give nothing back but think we owe them something. One small part of britain lost. Theres more mosques than churches. Says it all really.
I live in Luton and this fish bar was one of best chip shops. Then after I’m pretty sure it was the previous owner who unfortunately passed away. Ever since then it hasn’t been the same because not only is the quality worse, so is the portion size.

That's very true, we do still have numerous traditional English Fish 'n' Chips up here in the North ran by actual English folk which is absolutely delicious, but mostly only found up in the small towns and villages in the hillside.
@JynxedKoma Actual English folk? 😂 You do realise battered fish and chips was pioneered by Jews in East London. Anyways, I've had some shocking fish and chips up north, and shocking food in general. But I've also had good food. Same in London, same everywhere. I grew up in London in the 80s. Amazing chippies, many run by Greeks and Turks. Now Iranians. Wind your neck in, lad.
You wouldn't know your arse from your own head, so I wouldn't expect you to admit northern fish and chips to be the best. Just like I wouldn't trust you with grammar "Mansnobot". It's people like you that have ruined London. @@mansnotbot4160
@@mansnotbot4160 Not true Jewish people introduced the battered fish, Portuguese fishermen, introduced Chips to Scotland, one headed North and one headed South until they met and got put together, so Fish and Chips are indeed English.

How can you make a mess of a fish and chips to be fair? Such simple food. Either complete lack of care and just happy to push out crap, or it makes you think the shop is just a front to something else.
I reckon Danny meant it, D1GG. Some of these folk will tell ya black is white if it suits 'em. They're known for not sleighting their "own". It may improve , with time.
peeling wrap on the window and the crap visible from the inside through it thats an indicator of a bad operator no way. And all the well wishers family members sent to tell you how amazing it is....

I don’t know who told you prior to your visit that was the best chip shop in Luton but I can tell you they are mistaken. Wigmore South Luton or Pepe’s North Luton are the two I’d choose from depending on what end of Luton I was closest to and both of them are closer to the M1 motorway than the shop you visited.
No uniform, no hygiene rating geezer in a hoodie and baseball cap frying to order for you ...what could go wrong? Can't even get the saveloy right, most chippies have them sitting in a bowl of water to keep them from shriveling up. That cod had 24hrs on the shitter written all over it. A 3 was generous TBF. Wigmore chippy about half a mile from there is the best in Luton but it is massively overpriced. Who the hell was recommending this place, apart from friends and family?
I have a very strong memory having fish and chips here when about 12yo, circumstance and thinking it could never be ‘as good’ have kept me away (cough 30 years now…) But 12yo me would give it a solid 10.
I used to live in Flitwick and still go there for F & C even though there are 2 local to me in Houghton regis tried one of them and the batter was soggy underneath so now play safe and go to Flitwick.
Growing up down south, I'd never had gravy OR curry on fish and chips before. When I finally had it...I wasn't missing out. Salt and vinegar all the way. Maybe a bit of ketchup for the chips if they are lacking.
You know you are in trouble when the batter looks like a donut on the inside. Shocked it even got that score it deserved a 1 (those sausages are the worst I have ever seen in my life wow)
You could tell that sausage and saveloy was rank by looking at it you're a brave man to try them, the people seemed friendly though and the guy who served you seemed friendly too. Hopefully he sees this and learns from it. I swear i heard cameraman laughing too or was i hearing things lol?
Think you should have gone to Luton Town fish and chips in Limbury Mead a few miles away 👍This place has always been gopping even before it was refitted👍
@@Land-of-reason We do but they are not the same, its rare to find the exact same thing in the USA, in 40 years I've seen it twice. Fish are usually fish pieces, you will get 3 or 4, usually Cod, Chips in many cases are fries, sometimes battered fries or skin on, no problem, I've had some terrific Pacific Cod here in the states which rivals Atlantic Cod, it could have been in breadcrumbs, panko or tempura, I can say its very nice, but the prices are so much higher than the UK's, No mushy peas curry sauce or gravy, and certainly no chip butties, American's do not understand Chip Butties and think they are Nasty.
@@rbnhd1144 interesting. Sounds really nice. In some parts of the UK (the West Midlands) they put a light battering on the chips which gives them an orange colour. I’m not struck on putting batter on fish, however, it is probably done to keep it together in the frying process. Traditionally you could get cod roe but you don’t see much of that these days. The modern fishing factory ships tend to put it into tins whilst at sea (it’s not so good). My friends who visit the US for Naval sea trials are very keen on your fish restaurants and shellfish. The US is a superb place.
Nice to see some real honesty; could have just been a bad day for them - I've gone to the same chippy at Wombwell for about 5 years, banging 90% of the time, but when it's "iffy" it's throw it in the bin tackle.
Hi Danny.A place I suggest and highly recommend is bedders in small Heath Birmingham.Extremely popular for its fish and chips with onions on the fish .You also must try the mushy peas and curry sauce.I also recommend the sausages aswell which are divine. Opening hours are Mon-thurs 11.30-2pm Friday 11.30 -2pm and then reopens at 4pm-7.30pm Saturday 11:30-2pm Hope to see you there hopefully soon.
I've lived in the city my whole life but never managed to go because of it's limited opening hours. I do love that it's so old fashioned and still thriving in an area filled with more modern style chippy's / kebab shops.
@@NH-tv3jr I know exactly what you mean about location 😁 I still need to try it. Mother Hubbard in Erdington by Burger King is probably my favourite easily.
The only good Takeaway that I know of in Luton is Chicken George. Its now shut down but they have a shop in Hitchin, Which is about 10/15 mins drive from Luton. I highly reccomend it.
You need to try the fish and chips at the Dolphine Cafe in Peterhead - landed in the morning, on your plate at lunchtime. Maybe a wee bit of a trek though 😂
Southern and Northern Fish and chips are completely different. I spent 3 months renovating my sons house in Leeds and was amazed at the quality of the fish and chips. The defining difference is the crispness of the batter which is down to been cooked in beef dripping that has a high cooking temperature (around 190C). Vegetable oil used south of the country from Sheffield downwards creates a crispness that is short lived which turns into an almost bread like batter (as seen in this vid). Its a science ting 👍😊
I haven't had chips up north yet but I'd be massively surprised if they cooked in dripping, in 2024. So many vegetarians and people with incompatible religions. Near Birmingham there is the "black country museum" which has a period correct Victorian style chippy that uses dripping. But that is a museum!
The batter was too thick, the gravy was like water, to be fair the chips looked to be ok, the fish for cod looked to be a nice piece but I would prefer haddock, the peas like the gravy were a bit too wet, the curry, well I would prefer it not being present but that’s my taste, the sausage and the saveloy are both redundant by their presence and finally I think that the odd pieces of fish might have been an attempt at home made fish fingers, again with the presence of the main fish they were just not necessary. One other point is that the cans of drinks being as dusty as they obviously were points to an owner who doesn’t want to have a reputation for a clean and hygienic store.!😮
Alarm bells were ringing here when the guy made some statement about having a battered sausage after 4pm because their fresher. What are you serious. As for the sausages that Danny received they looked days old and inedible. Absolutely disgusting food. Even when Danny smelt the fish he knew it just wasn’t right. As for blowing dust of the canned drink that just said it all. Definitely another “East West Spice” in Scotland.
There are much better places than this to grab some food in Luton and nearby towns (Dunstable). Dunno who recommended this place to you Danny but they were having you on haha. I don't live in Luton, but it's not far from me, and this is isn't a fair representation of the restaurants they've got knocking about
£21 quid!!! Glad Danny gave it the shit score it deserved. For a second I thought he was going to give it yet another "solid 7 or 8" just to be kind. You can't be nice when presented with a garbage like that so well done Danny for being honest about this place.
It would be interesting to know whether the chips are cut on the premises or frozen. Many of the chippys have gone down the frozen root and the quality has gone down hill.
@Land-of-reason .........these dont look like they were cut on premises.............these types of owners put least amount of effort in and charge unbelievers as much as they can get.
How much? Bloody hell. I had fish, a small portion of chips and some curry sauce for my tea on Friday. £6.20. The fish is always cooked to order so it's not sat about sweating in those cabinets.
Where the hell was that? I'm not exaggerating, but where I am it's impossible to get fish and chips for under £15 and that's from the average shops. A place like Kennedy's Fish Bar you're looking near enough £20
@@asadzeethree2726 .... near me its approx £8.50 for large haddock and chips (enough for 2 folk to share) .........very fresh and cooked to order.........there are cheaper places but i wouldnt give them £.

About 5 years ago I was sent to Luton with 3 work colleagues to train staff in our Luton office we were meant to be there for 2 weeks anyway we got off the train went to the hotel took one look at the place and all 4 of us at just about the same time said what time is the next train back to Newcastle we got a taxi back to the train station and got on the next train back to Newcastle lol. We called our manager and told him we’re not staying in Luton and to expect us back in the Newcastle office in the morning. We later found out another lot of people from another office that was sent to train the Luton office did the same as us a couple of days later lol

Thick wet stodgy batter underneath top layer this should never be from a professional chippy ,
Depending where fish came from you may end up with frozen and defrosted fish twice .
If held to much water in fish you can get wet soggy uncooked batter,
Or if to much flour is stuck to wet fish before the batter this can give steamed flour and batter mix, and if batter mix to thick,or even if temp ain`t correct batter will soak to much oil hens soggy batter,
If it smelt not right could be old oil as oil prices shot up , the oil may not be changed so often.
if to much water from the defrosting , is held in the fish this will also keep the better soggy and uncooked, as fish goes in the oil , outer batter forms a some what seal, then water comes out of fish then to much water gets trapped and the batter ends up steamed,hence soggy underneath batter,
Some times fish might of been frozen defrosted then frozen again and then defrosted from boat to being cooked depends where it came from,funny how uncooked batter can tell you allot !!
Ask where the sausages came from , he possibly over cooked them as well hens dry,
Should of taken it back in and demanded money back, should of told him there`s a funny taste to the fish why should the customer put up with them terrible standards,at any price,

@@mansnotbot4160No one cares, boomer
You wouldn't know your arse from your own head, so I wouldn't expect you to admit northern fish and chips to be the best. Just like I wouldn't trust you with grammar "Mansnobot". It's people like you that have ruined London. @@mansnotbot4160
@@mansnotbot4160 Not true Jewish people introduced the battered fish, Portuguese fishermen, introduced Chips to Scotland, one headed North and one headed South until they met and got put together, so Fish and Chips are indeed English.
that's the first honest opinion i've seen you give.................... all i can say is "it's about bloody time Danny" .... keep up with the honest vids bud!
How can you make a mess of a fish and chips to be fair? Such simple food. Either complete lack of care and just happy to push out crap, or it makes you think the shop is just a front to something else.
Wigmore fish and chips is the best one for me personally in Luton
We would recommend Wigmore Fish Bar 😍😍 always has been great!
Easily!
The 5 star hygiene rating means nothing when they serve up food as bad as this.
''Not your Dad is it?'' 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I reckon Danny meant it, D1GG. Some of these folk will tell ya black is white if it suits 'em. They're known for not sleighting their "own". It may improve , with time.
@@blackbob3358shut up ya nob🤣🤣
Rate that fish come rate with meeeeeeeee.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That cracked me up haha
.....no he works at post office 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha, that made me laugh
Danny you must try “Chicken George” in Hitchin.
Possibly the best chicken shop in the UK.
peeling wrap on the window and the crap visible from the inside through it thats an indicator of a bad operator no way. And all the well wishers family members sent to tell you how amazing it is....
I was shocked to see people going in at the end
11:46 The second this character showed up Danny knew it was gonna be shite.
Danny is honest. The best about this was the can of pop. So bad did not eat it, livestream ended abruptly.
That fish was from the barren lands of mordor.....🤣🤣🤣
I hate it when you get batter like that, cooked outside and raw paste inside. i would have asked for a refund its that bad.
The first sausage looked like it needed to be circumcised and I haven't heard anything as crunchy as the second sausage since I ate raw carrots😂 Brave man Danny❤
😄
😂😂😂
😂😂
Carrots was the first thing that came into my head when he started eating the second sausage🤣🤣
Even the orks from lord er rings would laugh at that 🤮
Did make me laugh when the guy came along and said he won’t be dissapointed 😂
How could someone serve that and know it’s being reviewed.
He had no other choice, so he gave him it
14:27 - Danny inadvertently shouts "Curry in a hurry!" right at the moment a subcontinental-looking family walk behind him! 😂
Lol 😆
"subcontinental-looking" what do you mean by that?
@@diegoforlan2324 - As in from the Indian subcontinent which contains a few different countries. Didn't want to just say 'Indian' or 'Indian-looking' because they could well be from one of the similar neighbouring countries.
@@LHyoutube They could also be British
@@diegoforlan2324 - No, you totally missed my point. I said they were subcontinental-looking. That doesn't mean I was suggesting that they weren't also British. But it would be just as potentially embarrassing for Danny to be mistaken for shouting "curry in a hurry" (i.e. a phrase that inadvertently sounded like a childish racist joke) to a British citizen of subcontinental appearance as it would to a citizen of those countries visiting Britain or who had migrated there but not obtained British citizenship
Please don't assume or look for racism where none is present 👍
Hi Danny,
Wigmore fish and chip bar , all day long , keep the good work up 👍
I don’t know who told you prior to your visit that was the best chip shop in Luton but I can tell you they are mistaken. Wigmore South Luton or Pepe’s North Luton are the two I’d choose from depending on what end of Luton I was closest to and both of them are closer to the M1 motorway than the shop you visited.
Also Bramingham opposite Sainsburys fish & chip shop in Luton & Katherine drive on the cusp of Luton/Dunstable are both very nice.
No uniform, no hygiene rating geezer in a hoodie and baseball cap frying to order for you ...what could go wrong? Can't even get the saveloy right, most chippies have them sitting in a bowl of water to keep them from shriveling up. That cod had 24hrs on the shitter written all over it. A 3 was generous TBF. Wigmore chippy about half a mile from there is the best in Luton but it is massively overpriced. Who the hell was recommending this place, apart from friends and family?
Looks a dodgy place
Should try Flitwick Fisheries in Flitwick about 20 mins north.
Delicious every time, been there forever. Good video Danny!
I'd love to hear Danny try to pronounce Flitwick and Ampthill!
I have a very strong memory having fish and chips here when about 12yo, circumstance and thinking it could never be ‘as good’ have kept me away (cough 30 years now…)
But 12yo me would give it a solid 10.
I used to live in Flitwick and still go there for F & C even though there are 2 local to me in Houghton regis tried one of them and the batter was soggy underneath so now play safe and go to Flitwick.
Growing up down south, I'd never had gravy OR curry on fish and chips before. When I finally had it...I wasn't missing out. Salt and vinegar all the way. Maybe a bit of ketchup for the chips if they are lacking.
Is that the Deep South or “sarf Laandan”, or is it South China Sea?🤣
nonce
As John Shuttleworth would say ' Its nicer up North '
Fish and chips, with mushy peas and those batter-y bits
You know you are in trouble when the batter looks like a donut on the inside. Shocked it even got that score it deserved a 1 (those sausages are the worst I have ever seen in my life wow)
Needed to try The Wigmore Fish and Chips
You could tell that sausage and saveloy was rank by looking at it you're a brave man to try them,
the people seemed friendly though and the guy who served you seemed friendly too. Hopefully he sees this and learns from it.
I swear i heard cameraman laughing too or was i hearing things lol?
Think you should have gone to Luton Town fish and chips in Limbury Mead a few miles away 👍This place has always been gopping even before it was refitted👍
Thank you for your great content. From North Carolina, US
Colorado here.
Do you have fish and chip shops in the US? The clue was in the customers.
welcome to one of the worst towns in England American friends lol.
@@Land-of-reason We do but they are not the same, its rare to find the exact same thing in the USA, in 40 years I've seen it twice.
Fish are usually fish pieces, you will get 3 or 4, usually Cod, Chips in many cases are fries, sometimes battered fries or skin on, no problem, I've had some terrific Pacific Cod here in the states which rivals Atlantic Cod, it could have been in breadcrumbs, panko or tempura, I can say its very nice, but the prices are so much higher than the UK's, No mushy peas curry sauce or gravy, and certainly no chip butties, American's do not understand Chip Butties and think they are Nasty.
@@rbnhd1144
interesting. Sounds really nice.
In some parts of the UK (the West Midlands) they put a light battering on the chips which gives them an orange colour. I’m not struck on putting batter on fish, however, it is probably done to keep it together in the frying process. Traditionally you could get cod roe but you don’t see much of that these days. The modern fishing factory ships tend to put it into tins whilst at sea (it’s not so good). My friends who visit the US for Naval sea trials are very keen on your fish restaurants and shellfish. The US is a superb place.
A few good fish and chip shops in Luton, you went to a crap one
Those sausages 🤢 Also Danny doing a runner so the bloke doesn't come out and ask him what it was like 🤣
Nice to see some real honesty; could have just been a bad day for them - I've gone to the same chippy at Wombwell for about 5 years, banging 90% of the time, but when it's "iffy" it's throw it in the bin tackle.
Summer lane ?
Summer Lane ??
Best Chippy in Luton is Wignmore, Wow a great service and quality food but yet that looked really bad but its what works for that area
Your spot on pal, to dangerous to eat dodgy fish…. Love your videos mate
Hi Danny.A place I suggest and highly recommend is bedders in small Heath Birmingham.Extremely popular for its fish and chips with onions on the fish .You also must try the mushy peas and curry sauce.I also recommend the sausages aswell which are divine.
Opening hours are Mon-thurs 11.30-2pm
Friday 11.30 -2pm and then reopens at 4pm-7.30pm
Saturday 11:30-2pm
Hope to see you there hopefully soon.
I need to try there I live in Castle Brom and always hear good reviews of that place.
I've lived in the city my whole life but never managed to go because of it's limited opening hours. I do love that it's so old fashioned and still thriving in an area filled with more modern style chippy's / kebab shops.
Honestly it's overrated and worse still I wouldn't want anyone to sit outside there!
@@NH-tv3jr I know exactly what you mean about location 😁 I still need to try it. Mother Hubbard in Erdington by Burger King is probably my favourite easily.
Surely food left out longer than 2 hours needs to be binned or eaten before 2 hours has passed?
@rondonnis6588 yeah, they shouldn't have served them sausages. I can't believe they didn't make fresh ones, whilst being filmed too
The only good Takeaway that I know of in Luton is Chicken George.
Its now shut down but they have a shop in Hitchin, Which is about 10/15 mins drive from Luton.
I highly reccomend it.
If that’s the best chippy in Luton then god help the other ones
No one is English in Luton. More likely to get curry than fish and chips
@@callumkent7155 What an incredibly offensive and ignorant comment. Plenty of people who have Asian heritage are English.
@@mofomatNaa.
It’s good to have honest feedback not everything can be 10/10
Jürgen klopp has a new job already in Luton chippy 😂😂😂
You need to try the fish and chips at the Dolphine Cafe in Peterhead - landed in the morning, on your plate at lunchtime. Maybe a wee bit of a trek though 😂
got to a lot better and prettier driving all the way up there..than going to a total shithole like luton..
You need to do more bad places. Its hilarious
It is one of the nicest in Luton people like it round here 😮😮so shat your smouth😂
@@RyanBroome-k9pfor dogs maybe
@@RyanBroome-k9pyour fish bar is shit mate. You’ve been rumbled, I’d rather bite my own banger than bite into your wrinkly saveloys
Nothing tops off that Scotland one where it was 2/10
Southern and Northern Fish and chips are completely different. I spent 3 months renovating my sons house in Leeds and was amazed at the quality of the fish and chips. The defining difference is the crispness of the batter which is down to been cooked in beef dripping that has a high cooking temperature (around 190C). Vegetable oil used south of the country from Sheffield downwards creates a crispness that is short lived which turns into an almost bread like batter (as seen in this vid).
Its a science ting 👍😊
I miss Snake n Pygmy pud; down South it's pies not puds☹️
I haven't had chips up north yet but I'd be massively surprised if they cooked in dripping, in 2024. So many vegetarians and people with incompatible religions. Near Birmingham there is the "black country museum" which has a period correct Victorian style chippy that uses dripping. But that is a museum!
@@dfpguitarThe Asians don't really use chippies so it's not much of an issue.
@@dfpguitarBlack Country fish and chips are unbeatable.
@@dfpguitarBlack Country fish and chips are unbeatable.
Sausages looked a few days old, not even from the morning 😂
I do hope thats why danny was not on a hospital trolley in A&E at our local hospital .get well soon .god bless you all
The batter was too thick, the gravy was like water, to be fair the chips looked to be ok, the fish for cod looked to be a nice piece but I would prefer haddock, the peas like the gravy were a bit too wet, the curry, well I would prefer it not being present but that’s my taste, the sausage and the saveloy are both redundant by their presence and finally I think that the odd pieces of fish might have been an attempt at home made fish fingers, again with the presence of the main fish they were just not necessary. One other point is that the cans of drinks being as dusty as they obviously were points to an owner who doesn’t want to have a reputation for a clean and hygienic store.!😮
Sausages looked like they were a week old at least.
Bet he was on the toilet for days after
Wigmore fish and chips deffo the best
Danny, if you are ever around Oxfordshire/Buckinghamshire, then I recommend you try Smarts Fish & Chips. Its a place in a small town called Thame. 👍🏾
Alarm bells were ringing here when the guy made some statement about having a battered sausage after 4pm because their fresher. What are you serious. As for the sausages that Danny received they looked days old and inedible. Absolutely disgusting food. Even when Danny smelt the fish he knew it just wasn’t right. As for blowing dust of the canned drink that just said it all. Definitely another “East West Spice” in Scotland.
Looks like the food is not fresh? Perhaps a call to the food standards agency/trading standards is in order to pay a visit?
There are much better places than this to grab some food in Luton and nearby towns (Dunstable). Dunno who recommended this place to you Danny but they were having you on haha. I don't live in Luton, but it's not far from me, and this is isn't a fair representation of the restaurants they've got knocking about
£21 quid!!! Glad Danny gave it the shit score it deserved. For a second I thought he was going to give it yet another "solid 7 or 8" just to be kind. You can't be nice when presented with a garbage like that so well done Danny for being honest about this place.
He liked the chips and sauces ?
Fish didn't look that bad
It would be interesting to know whether the chips are cut on the premises or frozen. Many of the chippys have gone down the frozen root and the quality has gone down hill.
@Land-of-reason .........these dont look like they were cut on premises.............these types of owners put least amount of effort in and charge unbelievers as much as they can get.
Luton town fish and chips, in Calverton road is also good along with Wigmore. I never heard of this place you went to.
How much? Bloody hell. I had fish, a small portion of chips and some curry sauce for my tea on Friday. £6.20. The fish is always cooked to order so it's not sat about sweating in those cabinets.
It is not cod or haddock then as chippies do use other fish, so if it is a deal bet it just says fish chips and pot sauce
It's cod, definitely@@richardgoldins4790
That's not even enough for a piece of any fish here. Oap discount?
Where the hell was that? I'm not exaggerating, but where I am it's impossible to get fish and chips for under £15 and that's from the average shops. A place like Kennedy's Fish Bar you're looking near enough £20
@@asadzeethree2726 .... near me its approx £8.50 for large haddock and chips (enough for 2 folk to share) .........very fresh and cooked to order.........there are cheaper places but i wouldnt give them £.
I'd normally go to wigmore fish and chips. Been to luton fish bar couple of times and its ok.
You was brave visiting Luton lol. I only live 20 mins away from Luton and I would never go to Luton unless for a flight . I get many people try and book me in for carpet cleaning but I refuse all the time if they are from Luton . lol
About 5 years ago I was sent to Luton with 3 work colleagues to train staff in our Luton office we were meant to be there for 2 weeks anyway we got off the train went to the hotel took one look at the place and all 4 of us at just about the same time said what time is the next train back to Newcastle we got a taxi back to the train station and got on the next train back to Newcastle lol. We called our manager and told him we’re not staying in Luton and to expect us back in the Newcastle office in the morning. We later found out another lot of people from another office that was sent to train the Luton office did the same as us a couple of days later lol
I totally misread 'flight' as 'fight', and your comment still made perfect sense to me! 😂
Lutononnistan
Here in the US things are different. I'm not sure for the better. My family is from the UK over 100 years ago.
this is one of if not the worst town in the uk...and it looks horrific. ...ive been to atlanta(georgia)over there
those sausages looked totally inedible, like mummified plastic toys lol, creepy stuff!
You know it's bad when Danny only takes 1 bite of each thing and then scores its a 3/10
That’s why I like you 👍
and watch you don’t hold back
Good honest reviews 👍
