My Grand-dad told me that when he was courting my Grandma they used to get a pennorth of "bits" which were all the bits of batter and chips left over. Sometimes if they were lucky there were bits of fish too!
Know what you mean about portion size -I can't eat a full portion of fish'n'chips these days -way too much!
