marcus got excited about the prospect of BSE

I believe you all know about Millennium Chicken opposite our flat (and next to the circle if you want better bearings). Well, after a couple of pints last night, Slim and I meandered into MC for food a plenty having eaten nothing more than toast for S(to the)L(to the)I(to the)M and fruit bread for me. Upon ordering my healthy and hearty 99p triple decker burger, someone returned into the shop lifted up the bun from his previously purchased burger and said “look at that. no sauce”. Now, for those of you who have not visited MC, let me explain. Its not the Ivy, its not Conran, it doesn’t have Michelin rating, it probably doesn’t even have approval from the Health and Safety department of Lambeth Council, but here was someone complaining that his 79p burger wasn’t quite adequately stocked with condiments. He had actually *left* the shop, and returned some minutes later. ITS A 79P BURGER! did it really warrant such a return journey? he should have been happy it didn’t rupture his stomach or dissolve his lower intestine.
