A definitely cold and blustery July day with the wind

uproariously blowing at knots, and so uninviting

is it all that quite literally every living thing:

large or small and capable of independent

movement, is doing its level best, and

why not, to physically counteract

this continuous, boisterous and

wind-wrought aggressively

driven sustained assault.

Not so, however, the numerous and miscellaneous

vaulting seabirds hereabouts in Worthing, who

individually as well as collectively skilfully

engage in their inimitably choreographed

ballet de dance of theirs, as they rather

adeptly and clearly pleasurably ride

the dominant air currents of this

precipitous and quite furiously

developing, summer storm.

The summer fair, as is normally the custom at this

time of year, is currently in town – has been in

location for in excess of a week now and, as

is generally scheduled, will continue for

another ten days or so. But with the

knowledgeable, accurate and forewarned Met

Office forecast prediction of very severe

inclement weather striking this West

Sussex and popular English south

coast, seaside holiday town,

everything in relation to

this spectacular and

widely alluring funfair has,

for this one day, been

anticipatory and

temporarily

closed

down.

Author’s Comments:

Inclement weather, particularly in the summer, can be an annoying pain in the posterior; an exasperation that most people will assuredly tell you they can well do without.

But then, that’s human nature and, of course, we all of us quite honestly would much prefer there were no hitches in our holiday schedule and that everything started and ended quite swimmingly. And who logically wouldn’t want to agree with that clearly self-interested but overall, obviously sensible philosophy?

Did the alleged and generally acclaimed inventor

of the now readily accredited and ubiquitous

fish and chips meal intentionally set out

on this today famous culinary undertaking,

or was it fortuitously just an accident

in the making that only occurred

without any planned conceptualising

or precise planning by anyone?

In essence a force majeure

of its own fashioning.

Anyway, whatever the plausible or more like

than not the numerous farfetched reasons

that are customarily and assertively

given by the average Briton in

patriotically, but somewhat

risibly, claiming that the

standard fish and chips meal is a distinctly

unique, English-indigenous and an un-

waveringly popular British cultural

dish in every conceivable way;

one thing is unquestionably

certain and consequently

completely fair to say.

That the favourite fish and chips meal so culturally

and intensely ingrained in the British national

psyche is unquestionably a most agreeable

and a really vitalizing, culinary delight,

which, as far as the British Isles are individually

concerned, is forever here to stay. Whether

bought from the average fish and chips

shop as is characteristically done,

or else lovingly and diligently

organized in the kitchen

of one’s own home.

Author’s Remarks:

Anything more that could possibly be said would from a logical perspective be an overkill and rather off-puttingly superfluous. So I’ll leave things as there are and let your fish and chips, wherever you are, speak for themselves. Except for one thing!

If you ever happen to be in Worthing, West Sussex, England then I personally recommend that you visit the Café Vita there in South Street near the Promenade Roundabout; and where they prepare and distribute some of the most gorgeously delicious fish and mouth-watering chips ever; served magnificently by a most charming young lady by the name of Gabriella; or Gabi for short. Ask for her by name and she’ll see you right. Happy eating!

Av Stanley Collymore

Gjorde den påstådda och allmänt hyllade uppfinnaren av

det nu lätt ackrediterade och allestädes närvarande

fisk och chips måltid avsiktligt anges på detta

idag berömda kulinariska företag, eller

var det helt enkelt bara en olycka

i skapandet som bara inträffade utan

planerad konceptualisering eller

exakt planering av någon?

I huvudsak en force

majeure av sin

egen mode.

Hur som helst, vad som är rimligt eller mer än inte de

många långsiktiga orsakerna som är vanligt och

assertivt ges av den genomsnittliga briten

i patriotiskt, men något påtagligt och

hävdar att standard fish and chips måltid är

ett tydligt unik, engelska-inhemska och

en unwaveringly populär brittisk

kultur maträtt på alla tänkbara

sätt; en sak är utan tvekan

vissa och följaktligen

helt rättvist att säga.

Att favorit fisk och chips måltider så kulturellt och intensivt

ingripen i den brittiska medborgaren psyken är utan

tvekan en mycket angenäm och en verkligt

vitaliserande, kulinarisk glädje, som,

såvitt de brittiska öarna är individuellt berörda, är

för evigt här för att stanna. Huruvida köpte

från den genomsnittliga fish and chips

shoppa som är karakteristiskt gjort,

eller annars kärleksfullt och

flitigt organiserade i

köket av ens

eget hem.

Författarens kommentarer:

Allt mer som möjligen kan sägas skulle från ett logiskt perspektiv vara ett överdrivet och ganska förskräckligt överflödigt. Så jag ska lämna saker som det är och låta dina fish and chips, var du än är, tala för sig själva. Förutom en sak!

Om du någonsin är i Worthing, West Sussex, England, rekommenderar jag personligen att du besöker Café Vita där i South Street nära Promenade Roundabout; och där de förbereder och distribuerar några av de mest fantastiska läckra fisk- och munvattenchipsna någonsin; serveras magnifik av en mest charmig ung dam med namnet Gabriella; eller Gabi för kort. Be om henne med namnet så ser hon dig rätt. Smaklig måltid!

Par Stanley Collymore

L'inventeur présumé et généralement acclamé de la

maintenant facilement accrédité et omniprésent

repas de poisson-frites préparé intentionnel-

lement sur cette entreprise culinaire

célèbre aujourd'hui, ou était-ce

fortuitement juste un accident dans la fabrication

qui ne s'est produite sans conceptualisation

planifiée ou une planification précise

par quelqu'un? En substance une

force majeure de sa propre forme.

Quoi qu’il en soit, quel que soit le plausible ou plus

semblable que pas les nombreuses raisons far-

felues qui sont habituellement et avec

assurance donnée par le britannique moyen

patriotiquement, mais un peu risiblement,

prétendant que le repas de poisson et

frites standard est distinctement

unique, anglais et indigène et

un vague culturelle britannique

plat de toutes les manières

imaginables; une chose

est sans aucun doute

certain et par con-

sequent com-

plètement

juste à

dire.

Que le plat de poisson-frites préféré soit culturel-

lementet intensément enracinée dans le ressortissant

britannique la psyché est sans aucun doute

un des plus agréables et un délice

culinaire vraiment vivifiant,

qui, dans la mesure où les îles britanniques sont

individuellement concerné, est toujours

là pour rester. Qu'il s'agisse acheté

du poisson et des frites en

moyenne magasin

comme on le

fait typiquement, ou bien avec

amour et diligence organise

dans la cuisine de sa

propre maison.

Remarques de l'auteur:

Tout ce qui pourrait être dit de plus, d’un point de vue logique, serait excessif et superflu. Je vais donc laisser les choses en l'état et laisser votre poisson-frites, où que vous soyez, parler pour lui-même. Sauf pour une chose!

S'il vous arrive d'être à Worthing, dans le West Sussex, en Angleterre, je vous recommande personnellement de vous rendre au Café Vita, situé dans South Street, près du rond-point Promenade; et où ils préparent et distribuent les poissons et les frites les plus appétissantes du monde; servi magnifiquement par une très charmante jeune femme du nom de Gabriella; ou Gabi pour faire court. Demandez-lui son nom et elle vous verra bien. Bon appétit!

You came into reality not because I wanted one or, for

that matter, had even contemplated the need to have

one, since neither of these two occurrences

had even remotely crossed my mind let alone

embedded themselves there. So your very

existence and, naturally, unexpected presence here,

you see, are basically the fortuitous combination

of the gratuitous indulgence of an uncommon

act of laziness by me that has clearly and

quite self-evidently, advantageously

resulted in the eager sprouting,

certain encouragement there,

and what has transparently

become the unmistakable

and established fact of

what is now a most

distinguished and

alluring growth

of facial hair.

Unexpectedly but welcomingly

so, it’s true to say; and by

the look of things

permanently

here to

stay!

Author’s Remarks:

Meticulously a clean-shaven person, I nevertheless do think that I look rather fetching with this new beard of mine.
