I was pushed for time tonight so against my better judgement, (I am on a low-fat diet) I decided to buy a small portion of chips to go with the ham in the fridge.

I went into RICHMOND CHIPPIE on Willows Lane which is owned and staffed by Asians and is just round the corner from me.

I ordered my small chips! There were 2 customers waiting for fish in front of me and they both got their meals after a 15 minute wait. Just before they received their meals, another guy entered the chippie and ordered a 9" garlic bread. The staff then started making up takeaway orders - and ran out of chips!

The next batch of chips are cooked, the guy walks out with his cooked garlic bread and I am all alone at the counter...................

A little Asian kid walks in and asks for a Dab. "With chips" he was asked, "no" he replied and duly got his Dab complete with salt & vinegar. I am getting just a tad unhappy now, all I want is a portion of chips and I have been in the place for close on 30 minutes!!

Just as I thought I might get my chips, a lady walked in wearing a burka and ordered pie and chips and she was immediately served!

The member of staff finally turned to me and asked confirmation that I wanted just small chips.......................

The look on his face was a picture as I told him quite graphically where to shove his chips

30 minutes wasted - - but a gratifying finish!
