Straight of the bus and down living dead alley - formerly East Street, Straight over the intersection at Mamba row -used to be St Peters street, pass St Peters churchyard benches were you'll find Derbys finest screaming obscenities and look for the old theatre on the corner, the one that looks likes it been used for carpet bombing practise for twenty years, this is Muggers Mews - formerly Green Lane. Then your at Macklin Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Just a thought. I’ve only ever eaten Macklin Street chips when drunk cos its next to a taxi base! I’ve probably not been drunk in Derby since 2013! So the chips maybe horrible anyway! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) Anyone remember the chippy that used to be in Surrey street just off Ashbourne Road. Long gone unfortunately but was the best back in the day Edited September 7, 2021 by Monty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(That’s a lot for us!). And all that whilst officially “daytime drinking”… which we are no longer adept at! Of course, such wanton behaviour usually incurs the wrath of Lady Luck, and in this case, we missed our bus for the return back to camp, which gave us an early evening wait in excess of an hour, for the next bus. Being under the influence, the chippy called. We opted for mini fish & chips x 2. I didn’t like the sound of the mini bit (Muckerette’s suggestion… obv’s!) so sneakily added a sausage to mine… plus peas & curry sauce to share. Firstly, being so far south, I dare not ask for a mix. Secondly, imagine my absolute shock and awe when opening said carton of peas, to discover they were processed, and not remotely mushy! yes, we’d normally be on the continent at this time of year, and yes, quite possibly trying “something different”, but this was something that was all rather new to us! Processed peas… with fish & chips… from a chippy! …THE DIRTY bar stewards! Contact the food standards agency, get that place shut down, could also get them done for claiming to be a chippy. Processed peas, what a joke Mucker1884 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar but had some far more recently (still pre-lockdown). Definitely a case of chips are chips are chips are chips, nothing extraordinary but not bad. The cod has always been a good size and battered/fried fresh, never had a disappointing meal tbh.

Used to get free bags of scraps too.....no longer allowed due to some stupid H&S rule about fat content I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 Great thread this. With living overseas and not being able to get back home since the Christmas before Covid, I'd honestly pay very good money for a bag of fish, chips, peas and side of curry sauce right know! Having spoken with lots of exiled Brits, it's the one thing everyone misses. You're all right, pea mix, curry mix etc. is pretty much a colloquial Derby thing and is lost elsewhere. The joys of the English language. Shelton Lock and George's in Alvaston are both pretty good and always get a visit when I'm back. Hopefully this Christmas.

She also was a model in the 90s for pretty polly tights...great legs. She's also a highly intelligent woman. But not nearly as good as decent fish and chips.....? And from when I used to listen to her on Radio 1, hilarious at times. Probably the funniest radio presenter I can think of (whether me being a simpleton has anything to do with it, I don't know). I was devastated when she left! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She had some superb one liners, eg "ooooh, waves of testosterone lapping around me ankles" as a couple of male interviewees started on each other. Sadly, she also did some terrible stuff. The Girlie Show on C4 was spectacularly dreadful.... ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
