Those fish posters.

I just wanted to say that perhaps my favourite part of the whole fish and chip shop experience is looking at those wonderful posters of loads of different kinds of sea fish, all shown in a nice lateral view, all named. I think the fish, and the posters thereof are beautiful.

..and those classy adverts where the tag line is "Chips without fish is like..." with a poster of a famous duo with one of them in silloette. Particularily good since no-one under the age of 50 recognises the duo - except steptoe and son smiley - smiley.

Local regulations state that such posters must be faded in strong sunlight for at least 3 months before going on display. Is this the case in the UK?

Researcher,

Might I point something out to you? - I know this may seem glaringly obvious but it is possible you may have not noticed - You are not using a mobile phone! You are using a computer with a perfectly good keyboard (which hopefully has all the proper letters on it) and it doesn't cost you more if your message is longer due to using proper words. As I said you may not be aware of this so I thought you might find it a little helpful to know and then you can cut out the F**kwit speak.

No Thanks Necessary I am quite happy just knowing I have helped
