Hi Jogon,Maybe you need to check out 'LOL' on this site:http://www.internetslang.com/I am always having to check out the abbreviations used on internet sites and found this site to be very useful and informative. Maybe it's just my age and lack of knowledge.Ian

Positive news about the Wetherby Whaler takeover.They do very good fish and chips at their Wetherby branch so lets hope the standard can be maintained, rather than Harry Ramsdens slide into the lower reaches of mediocrity.

This is good news as the building & location is an iconic symbol of Leeds IMO (LOL). I enjoy going into the Wetherby Whaler in Pudsey from time to time as they do really nice fish & chips and at a reasonable price for the sheer volume of food you get. Hopefully with that amount of cash getting invested it can get back to it's heyday and become the tourist attraction it once was.

Harry's, 1952.Leodis description:"7th July 1952. Harry Ramsdens' original fish and chip restaurant at White Cross, Guiseley. This is part of the queue who waited for fish and chips at 1912 price 1 1/2d (less than 1p)."Even though the fish and chips were very cheap on this day, it still shows the popularity of the place. 10,000 people turned up. McDonalds could give their stuff away, and not get this number outside! I remember in the 60s and early 70s happily queuing for an hour at Harry's.
