Wimpey
« on: November 27, 2008, 02:38:47 PM »
I had to go to Croydon yesterday (Personal Development course via Jobcentreplus). At lunchtime I ventured in to the Wimpey bar (do they still call them that?) and had a Classic Wimpey Cheeseburger - I had nort been in there for over 30 yaers - won't be in a hurry to go back.

But do you remember when we all thought that Wimpey Burger Bars were the mutts nuts and our parents told us they were crap?

If it was anything like the one they made me go on a few years ago it was like the Wimpey Burger ~ Crap but attendance ensures the money continues to roll in.

My sister was a Wimpy Waitress many, many years ago. All I ever got was a free cup of coffee though.
