And in Morrisons and one of the stores near the Brighton train in Victoria.

Used to be able to get the first Tayto in Mandy's in Tooting.

 

[discokermit]

tayto always tastes better in ireland.

Yeah but when you're not able to get home and someone hands you not one, but two packets of Tayto thousands of miles from Ireland... it's a taste that can bring tears to your eyes

the one in the south are made by a seperate company to the one made in the north so might explain the difference

there is no difference. i was making a jokey comparison to guiness.

 

[Ax^]

since they stopped brewing guiness in the uk, the taste difference is less noticable

but kings are the better cheese and onion..

The southern Tayto was the first, sometime in the 50s and then the northern variant was rolled out a couple of years later. Separate companies (afaik) and somehow, they came to an agreement. Taste-wise, would rate the original over the younger version. But it's probably a psychological thing.

Judging by the position of the fella's hands, that's a bag of plain on the left, and a bag of Nazi on the right.

Unfortunate positioning of crisp bag on the right (where else)

Certainly impressed by the narrtive combination of post-Brexit lorry queues at Calais and Dover becasue, you know, it's all impossible, and post Brexit shortages of ... checks notes ... drivers.

We seem to be absent a montage of the two narratives side-by-side ..

woah you are right ! Why don't we ever see photos of not all that many lorries queueing up at the border ! genius.
Do you think maybe both of them - the stuff about customs checks existing now and the story about not enough lorry drivers - both of them are lies made up by bitter Remoaners?

He'll have to check his notes

 

[krtek a houby]

Oops, sorry. He left them in the impossible lorry with the non-existent driver.

Sometimes shelves aren't immediately restocked and you might have to shop somewhere else. The horror!

Not right now cos Covid, but duty free between the UK and EU is back on.

This is one of those weird alternative realities constructed on social media. One on hand we have lived reality: which is people going to the shop to buy food. On the other hand we have a social media campaign (this one organised by Continuity Remain Space Cadets) that aims to tell us our lived reality is wrong and there are food shortages caused by Brexit.

Yes, I've checked my notes and based on my reading of them have concluded that he sounds like a massive twat when he does it
