When I was a kid and my mom and I escaped the house while my dad was working on a massive-grumpy-making work project, we drove 2 miles to a bigger city with beautiful galleries, parks etc. We were in the car all day it seemed, and had a fun but long day. At the endof it we were driving home and for whatever reason couldnt find anywhere open for food. We were STARVING. It started to rain. It was getting cold, we were miserable. Then there was a tiny little Kentucky Fried Chicken open. Not normally fans of KFC, we stopped and had a delicious feast!!! It was fab, and KFC has never tasted so good before or since.Michellouihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16841678308675092702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3519883976018465014.post-30583091407360183362010-02-05T11:23:54.514+01:002010-02-05T11:23:54.514+01:00At the risk of lowering the tone, drunken visits t...At the risk of lowering the tone, drunken visits to the kebab van after a debauched night out in my student days spring to mind...Gappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086671907412626209noreply@blogger.com
