madgolfer... they have a fish and chip shop in King Cross shopping mall, but having looked at what's served I think about all that's British is the name, the rest is Croatian. It's a bit like the guy who opened a Chinese restaurant in Avenue Mall (now closed). Thought I'd try it, and it was like the worst Chinese food I have ever eaten. Found out the cook was Croatian. Sorry Croatian's, but import a cook or go learn how to cook proper Asian food the right way before you open any such restaurant. Know your food or get butched!

Crojoe, you should learn not to misuse the apostrophe!!

You wrote "Croatian's should learn" - why the apostrophe? The apostrophe is used in the possessive, ie the boy's house, the house belong to the boy, or when a letter is omitted, ie don't, didn't. It is NEVER used to denote a plural!!!

Oh god, the return of the mistress of grammar and punctuation Its the internet for christs sake. You have omitted two apostrophes as well as two capital letters.

pocketvenus.... go talk to Bill Gates about it. Spell check missed it, as did my small brain. By the way, there should be a space between pocket & venus, as there is no such word in the English language as pocketvenus. hehe!

I did it to annoy you. What did I omit this time ? I'm the focus of an upcoming article in Sensa magazine as part of the Sretna Kuhinja (happy kitchen) series. Maybe i could compete with these Brit ladies in the kitchen.
