Subject: RE: Where have all the 'Greasy Spoons 'gone
In my drinking days in the mid 60's, to finish off a Saturday night we would drive the 20 or so miles to Tony's Cafe on the Grantham by-pass and religiously order "The Lot and Chips with 2 bread and butter and a pint mug of tea". This cost the princely sum of 3 shillings and sixpence (171/2 pence). That cholesterol still lines my arteries to this day.
