    Fish fingers? They're almost as bad as frozen chips. I make the chips but the wife does the fish. They didn't do domestic science at KGV in the 50s so, I never learned how!
    Just be yourself, no one else is better qualified!!

    I left KGV a year or so after you, without any dom sci background, but I had been taught to learn. That's why I can fry fish.

    Hunger is a good incentive, lads are always hungry.

    I'm sure the fish is delicious Derek, you'll have to send me the recipe.

    I never fry anything, not even an egg. I saw a programme on TV recently and the person getting the breakfast ready was deep frying the bacon. UGH

    I've heard there's an underground outfit running from an already established chippy that are serving up some lovely fish n' chips in the Birkdale area, very close to the station apparently.

    Knock twice on the back door

    Next time you can find an excuse to come back to Norway, give me a call and, if I get 24 hours notice, I'll knock you up a genuine lapskaus and invite you home to enjoy it!

    Hmmm, I wonder if Lob Scouse is a derivation of Lapskaus - they look rather similar ?

    UPDATE : In Norway, the word lapskaus more often refers to a variation of beef stew often made with gravy, or in some cases other types of stew, more or less identical to the Liverpudlian scouse.

    I think it's the other way round. It was originally a Danish word (labskovs), then became a Liverpudlian word and then came to Oslo. In Norway, it's often made of lamb, not only beef. See this: https://nordicdiner.net/norwegian-lobscouse-stew/
