At every one of these [classical] concerts in England you will find rows of weary people who are there, not because they really like classical music, but because they think they ought to like it. (Shaw, Don Juan in Hell)

Speaking of pub fish and chips, I saw a menu the other day offering battered cod, chips and mushy pea. Just the one, then, squashed on the back of a fork?
