Is it so expensive it needs a cash machine as you go in?

Thinking about it, I would always have referred to it as a fish supper, not a chippy tea. Then again, I'm a bit of a hybrid (bastard?) - Yorkshire mother, Lancashire father, born in Essex, brought up in the midlands.

Some people have combined breakfast and lunch, and called it brunch. Could we combine dinner and supper, and call it 'sinner'?

Driving an electric car seems to be similar to being vegan - you don't have to ask whether someone does or is, because they'll tell you repeatedly.

The proposed smoking law is clearly a back door method to introduce ID cards. How else will someone be able to prove that they are say 27, and not 26?
