I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.

Well he says he will go anywhere in the world but I doubt I have enough $$$ or £££ for an order delivered to Herndon, Virginia.

Up on the Outer Hebrides the nearest Take Away was at Stornoway. If you wanted a curry you phoned up and if you lived on the Uists it was flown down from Stornoway to Benbecula on the afternoon Loganair flight. It did mean you had to order early.

Imagine how hard it is to get a pizza delivered to people living on this street. ;)

Presumably pronounced "Boothall" by the residents. :dunno:

Like "Frome" is "Froom" etc.
Cheers, Mike.

Could be worse Alex, it's 112 km drive to the nearest restaurant from my place..hence they are reluctant to offer delivery, must admit with no fast food options available it's certainly led to a healthier life style.

Faz Ahmed, from Southsea's Akash restaurant, said they still honoured the business's policy of free delivery on orders over £12.

Can't be bad :thumbsup:

Where on earth did you find that Brian?, when I first saw it yesterday I thought, hmm I remember a "Butthole lane" in the village where I grew up, it's in a village called Shepshed uk, changed quite a bit since I last saw the place.
