I think it was Michael Atherton who wrote in his biography about a "Simmo Special".....purchased from a Fish & Chip Shop, after a days hard cricket. Appaently, it was 2 fish, 2 lots of chips and 6 pies...all open. He would clear the lot.

He used to live up Dill Hall Lane, if I remember rightly.......there was also another famous guy who lived up there as a kid and also published his autobiography...but the names just slipping me....any ideas's anyone? I think he was a TV star.
