Smoggy Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm with TheQ on this one. Not been in a maccy d's since they crinkle cut the gherkins, at least when they were straight cut you could flick them at the doors and race them to the bottom.... Maybe that is why we got chucked out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyg Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 We use to go to Macdonalds every sat for dinner when our kids were younger. It would be the only fast food we'd have all week and a treat. My wife was very strict with the children's diets back then. As we've got older we find we can't eat the stuff anymore our digestive systems can't cope with it. Our grandchildren are a different matter tho, they love the stuff and often persuade me to sneak off and have one while nans not about lol.. I do like their coffee and the odd Mc flurry it has to be said. But if ever I'm in Cromer the crab will always get my vote over a box of nuggets, don't think the kidds would agree tho. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noooooo now I'm in my late 30's the hangovers are just too much to handle, I'm now all for starting early and finishing early to give myself the best chance of not losing the day after, I fail most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victoryv Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I have never been in a Mc Donalds, I don't think I would know how to order etc, think its to late to start now, I am however, well aware of their littering policy, made obvious when I drive to work. The best hangover cure on earth is a whole Bakewell Pudding, handy when you live in walking distance to Bakewell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZimbiIV Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 The youngest step daughter will not eat anything that looks like meat but will eat a Mcdonalds! I have never tried one or been in one of their establishments. I prefer my fast food to be served after a nice glass of wine, on a white china plate. Then when the blushing fillet steak has been eaten somebody takes the plate away. paul 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZimbiIV Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 To finish it would have to be cheese board with a LBV port. Then a simple coffee with a Grand Marnier on the side. God I'm hungry now. paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can keep the spirits but my mate Chris would agree to a small port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkNog Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Just been looking at the map - looks like a drive to/through job. Its a bit up from the station so away from the main town. Don't suppose I'll be tempted to stagger in after a visit to the Red Lion I suspect it will do very well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I'm proud to say that I still haven't been into Roy's McDonalds since we moved up here. Been tempted a couple of times but ... not enough to venture in and stand inside with masked up socially distanced youths and workmen ... yes that does seem to be the typical McD's customers around here out of season! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus me and Mrs Nog a couple of times. We've been there in winter nursing a hangover. I wouldn't fancy going in during the summer though! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is in what was the far too large Co-Op car park. It is a big one drive thro and sit down, perhaps one day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did the trick even if it didn't in any way really resemble the real thing - I did struggle to work out the difference between the hash brown and the sausage pattie. When, many years ago, I used to work late into the evening I would pop to Macdonald's which was the only place open within a reasonable distance and have their veggie burger, which was quite tasty. Many years later a Macdonald's opened near to where I live, but they had stopped doing the veggie burger - haven't been in the place since. p.s. I am partial to the occasional burger from Burger King but their places are like hen's teeth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
