So I went to Five Guys this week, in Reading of all places.

It was a reasonable burger, and the 200 different types of drink available from the magic machine, was awesome.
However, the bill for a cheeseburger, fries and a drink? Just shy of £15! From a fast food joint, akin to McDonalds. I wouldn't even say the burgers are that much better than McDonalds, just different. They certainly aren't anywhere close to MeatMission, for example.

I'll probably go back though, because of the magic drinks machine!

I thought this thread was going to be a RMD for gyrating entertainment for your stag do and how much other blokes had paid for the male multi-strip action on their special evenings with their butch friends. But no.

Do you know, I must have bought you something on eBay once as I just bought a windscreen scrapy think with a built in glove mitten and only realised as I was about to click the final confirmation that your address was selected.

The other day Chloe cleared her windscreen with a shoe. It was a suede shoe.

I've bought some new shoes, so thought I should get a nice scraper in case the frost settles in the window!

Five Guys US is about $5 for a burger and $3 for a portion of fries that's easily big enough to share. No idea why the UK one is twice that price.
