Redforever86 Posted May 6, 2024 Share Posted May 6, 2024 I’d quite like to go on a coach trip to Whitby, it seems the most mundane thing you could do in life, and therefore would be a unique experience. Bring a bag o cans, be a laugh wi all the old racists. Link to comment

Whatever picture you have in your head from 20 years ago, it's probably still exactly the same. A few years ago now I found myself there to assess an insurance claim for water damage. The water damage looked like it had probably improved the look of the place tbh. Link to comment
BrisDon Posted May 6, 2024 Share Posted May 6, 2024 Used to alternate between Chattan’s (closed many years ago), Ashvale on GWR and the place in Mannofield. Ashvale had the best haddock fillets but Mannofield had the best batter. Must say NE chippers are a far higher standard than in Edinburgh. Firstly, salt n sauce is vomit worthy but the general quality is terrible. There was an OK place in Marchmont (Salvatore’s) but the owner was a stone faced Italian cunt.  Link to comment

Plus there’s a cathedral or church or something on a hill. Would recommend. Link to comment

I'll pass that on to my Mother min.😄 Just so happens, she's going down to Scarborough via Whitby on Friday for a few nights. (Simpson's Bus Tours Mini Break). Does the inspiration for the story of Dracula by Bram Stoker originate in Whitby orissa actually Cruden Bay?🤔 Link to comment

Can't remember if I've bought a chippy in Edinburgh, Shirley plain old salt and vinegar is also an option? 1 Link to comment
