Not been in there for years, used to do a mossive fish though. Unfortunately my old man always preferred the little chippy cos they did orange chips.

Always remember Kenny Mosedale telling me a story about big Micky Hewitt (god bless him x) going into the Ocean and ordering 2 pies or 2 fish? because he wasnā€™t very fond of chips.
And someone upset him outside and instead of hitting them (because he was a gentle giant) he threw the food at them, he loved his food so must have been proper pissed :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Little Chippy is much better. The Big Chippy (Ocean) seems to have got a bit too greasy according to my old man.

Yeah I am talking 15 years since I last went in there. I never liked orange chips, the little chippy was the first place I ever knew do them. My Dad always used to go there when we were kids. There was a chippy over the road from our house actually in heath end, when we were really young. Think it is a chinese now. Used to serve your chips in newspaper.

The chippy on the Wolv*****ton rd has stepped up trust me, my family rave about it.
Takes me back to the last time i used it, the old Greek guy had it, i ordered fish and chips but i wanted extra salt, but he said ā€œNOā€ it is bad for you, then i ordered a coke and he said ā€œwell have a sugar free you look like you need itā€ :joy: i never went again :joy:

My first experience of orange chips was when I was at school in Wednesbury in the mid 70ā€™s. We used to sneak out to the one in Franchise Street once or twice a week.
25 years on I took on a factory around the corner from there and so went back in. It was like stepping back into my childhood.

Has this thread gone off topic a bit? Weā€™ve had parakeets, Sandwell Valley, creme eggs, Mars bars, Jimi Hendrix, orange chips and cunnilingus, and thereā€™s still five days to go till kick off.

I worked on the modernisation of the houses on Franchise street, but spent more time in the Cottage spring and Forge tavern :joy:

Talking of orange chips thereā€™s a shop in Bilston that does them, Iā€™ve been there a few times before going to The Robin, I always think they are dead nice at first, but about a third of the way through the portion I reckon they become really sickly.

Youā€™re on your own. Iā€™m busy working.

Can we try to stay on topic, not reminisce about deep fried budgies or whatever!!
