It must be quite a large chain if there is one near me. Chains only usually arrive this far south when they’ve finished opening literally everywhere else.

Give it a try if you like Nando’s, it’s the same thing pretty much, just cheaper

I always say this. The fajita wrap and prime pitta are the best.

We had the grand opening of Popeyes yesterday in the city centre. They even had a Louisiana style brass band playing outside :saxophone: I’ve yet to try their chicken.

The hot honey burger is so good, with the hash brown on it.

Get the chicken strips instead of on the bone :drooling_face:

The gravy is very bbq tasting (wasn’t for me, as I expected it like kfc gravy).

Edit: I do always find the meal with the side is too much food for me.

Lloyds have 8% back, Monzo also offer this now and then which I’ve claimed both times.

Another car question - what are people paying for breakdown cover and with which company? Why are the prices so significantly different? I looked at RAC and Green Flag, and Green Flag was about £100 for all the added benefits

I’ve just had my renewal through from RAC with a special discount from Kia :roll_eyes: they still want just under £100 and that’s allegedly with 48% off.

I’ve been looking and deciding between Brittania Rescue and Select Rescue which are both way cheaper

899

I can’t offer a direct comparison, sorry!
I used to have bundled breakdown (RAC) with HSBC Advance, then switched to bundled breakdown (RAC) with Monzo Max. Only ever used the HSBC once (it was flawless) and haven’t used Max yet.

Got Green Flag for £44.48. Only thing it didn’t include was European cover.

I found RAC was included with Aviva insurance. I was with Start Rescue before this, who I couldn’t recommend enough.

I’ve never considered using a debit card as a knife before. And it’s going to stay that way after seeing this :laughing:

You can use them to scrape the ice off your windscreen. I’m sure there’s loads of other uses.
