New year, new me, new diet...... Yeah right!!! So the obvious selection for a hearty, quick lunch time meal is you friendly local "golden arch" fast-food restaurant.
I never understood the fascination of this place. I'm not a big fan of the golden arches and think the food tastes like cardboard and totally over priced. But for the greater good of this experiment, I took one for the team and decided to give it a go.
So to try and keep to the £2 limit I ordered from the 99p saver menu.... YUMMY!!!! Nothing beats a flat, small, shitty tasting cheese burger but I must admit the toffee/caramel sundae is the dogs bollux.
So... Place your bets. Yes or no? Did they accept the £2 silver Britannia?
This one wasn't even close. I got a point blank NO!! Took less than 5 seconds for the young lady to look down, look at me, look down again and as calm as you like give the coin back to me.
I really thought we might have been on to a winner here. OK so where next?? Ideas welcome.
