    Not sure if this has been mentioned but in Scotland, if a battered mars bar doesn't take your fancy, then maybe a 'Buckfast Curry' will :o:o

    if a battered mars bar doesnt give you a chest pain, then a battered pizza just might.
    imagine all the oil that bready pizza must soak up - ew.

    Never had a battered mars bar, however i'm partial to a half pizza supper (though i've had to give them up as i'm on a diet) The pizza doesnt actually soak up much oil at all. The inside is always light and fluffy.

    The 'come dine with me' in Dundee was hilarious Rob! Jimmy was an absolute scream:rotfl:
