It's break time at work, couldn't be bothered to do a packed lunch....it's come to this....McDonalds. I'm going for the 'Big And Tasty' with Bacon special which I have to admit is a guilty pleasure, I take my place in the queue, only a couple of people in front, it's about 7:30pm, quite quiet....shouldn't take to long...........seriously, this place has to be the worst for service I can remember in some time, one person serving, I think, spotty despondent oik, wandering around aimlessly, I think I was finally served after a good 10 minutes!!
Thankfully the 'B and T' was indeed (slightly) Big but very tasty, so after filling my belly with grease and calories all was forgiven!!

My workmate wanted to pop in to get a coffee, just got a tip from a customer, feeling like a snack so ordered a Cheeseburger "deluxe" for just over 3 quid, never has the word deluxe been so misused.
The burger was dry luke warm, not sure how long it was on the shelf for, and the bun actually stuck to the bottom of the box it was in, pathetic excuse for fast food, and apparently this store has a bad reputation for poor quality.
No, I'm not expecting a gastronaut experience, just something that is hot and at least slightly tasty.

This wasn't planned, honest.
After a hideous Rustlers experience earlier in the day, another Burger really wasn't on the menu, but you know us truckers. So we end up in Portishead, end of the shift with time to kill, so it's either break the bank at Gordano Services or the cheap McD option in town. Now I usually opt for the cheap 'n cheerful 1/4 Pounder option but saw that the 'Big 'N Tasty' was back on the menu (over a fiver though) go on then you bad boy! And 'Big 'N Tasty' it was too, piping hot, nice meaty Burger, lovely sauce, lashings of salad, all accompanied by fries and washed down with a Coca Cola....oh my poor arteries!
(N.B This meal turned out to be a bargain as they had to cook it from scratch, forgot the order and gave me the meal and a refund when I complained-kerching!)
