Well, today needs to be "Cheap" ... but hopefully still "Cheerful".
The Gorv's finances have been severely depleted after £6.50 odd at DNA followed by £8.00 at Zorba's.
Today has to be a less expensive option!
In fact, less than £4.81 to be exact ... as that's all I have in my pocket!
So guys'n'gals over to you!
Where's a cheap'n'cheerful eating place for today?

I need stamps. I could sell you a few of those for £4.80, although what with the current price of stamps I don't think they'd fill you up.
Peckers. California. Asda. Spring to mind as alternatives to stamps.
Uncle
If you need stamps, why do you want to sell some to me?
It's a bit like ...
I'm hungry, so I'll give you some of my food - uh?
Pecker's is a real possibility, but I know Karen is interested in coming, perhaps.
That would mean Oriental Views (19p too much) or Nip/Tuck (OK if I avoid anything more then £4.21 - of course I need 60p for rice tea)
Asda - no way Jose!
California ... maybe, but Karen would veto it.
Gorv, I would of course buy the stamps first and then sell them onto you at a mark-up. Simple.
...and stop calling me Josie!
Now boys,
The problem is, Sam is off for her lunch at 12.30 to 13.30. So it would have to be at 13.30 or
if there is someone to cover the phone for 1/2 hour I'm up for Oriental Views or Nip/Tuck.
Yes Richard, you know me only too well. Peckers is definitely out and California too.
But don't let me stop you, if you feel like P or C I'll grab something else or go home for lunch.
Uncle
Whadyamean?
I know you're not a gender-bender, so I never would call you Josie ... Jose, perhaps!
And your offer of marked-up stamps still doesn't sound appealing!
Plus where is everybody else??
Worst of all, we're no nearer a GLENN-CLUSION.
Ilias where are you???
Give us some Greek goobledy-gook to help us clarify our present conundrum!
Where?
When?
And not more than £4.81!
Sorry folks. I'm extremely busy lately..
I prefer Peckers for today. But of course there is the 'Karen' problem, so.. I don't know!
Time: How about 13.00?
Get with the retro references Gorv! My supposed confusion over the name Jose stems from a line in a film from the early 80s about an aircraft in jeopardy. SURELY now you see where I'm coming from?
GLENN-CLUSION: 1pm. If Karin can escape, Nip/Tuck, if not Peckers.
Hey Uncle, that's decisive and almost definitive!
A definite time ... a yet to be determined destination!
A done deal!
Guys,
Looks like Peckers as there is noone to cover the phones.
So enjoy and maybe we can have Chinese/Japanese feast tomorrow?
Poor Karin
Kept hungry until tomorrow.
So I think we have to accept that it's Oriental Views or Nip/Tuck tomorrow.
I only wonder how long we can argue over those two on the Blog!
So Pecker's it was.
Jacket potato, cheese and coleslaw for the Gorv, Pecker's Burger for Ilias ... but the Uncle was denied a pudding as apparently they no longer do them (apart from ice-cream).
Certainly within budget - lunch and tea for £4.00.
