This is nothing new. Many years ago, about 30 I think, we had the misfortune to be in LLandudno where we decided to stop for something to eat. There were about six of us, we decided to have fish and chips and queued up in a chippy, when we got to the counter I ordered six portions of fish and chips. "Sorry" was the reply "We've no fish left". There just happened to be about 6 or 8 fish in the warmer. "What are these then?" we asked. "Oh They're reserved for the locals." replied the charming Welsh gentleman. I won't repeat the advice we gave him.
