    That's exactly why he does do it John, I've often thought about going that route myself, think I'll do it next time a bunch of us go out just to see the reactions

    Must admit to a fondness for the odd bit of Junk food, favourite being a Dominos pizza followed by a few coldies on a Friday night in.
    Don't know if all Dominos do this but my local one has just introduced chocolate filled dough balls as a side order.
    Heaven for the ladies, chocolate and pizza all at once.
    Know this is nothing nautical but having survived on hard tack and biscuits at smoko, having something I can actually get my teeth into is rather pleasant.

    Not being a lover of sweet food I often have a Prawn cocktail for dessert.
    Happy daze John in Oz.

    Never realised you had Dominos in UK, thought it was just an Oz rip off.

    Domino's Pizza is an American restaurant chain and international franchise pizza delivery corporation headquartered at the Domino Farms Office Park (the campus being owned by Domino's Pizza co-founder Tom Monaghan) in Ann Arbor Charter Township, Michigan, United States, near Ann Arbor, Michigan.Founded in 1960, Domino's is the second-largest pizza chain in the United States (after Pizza Hut) and the largest worldwide, with more than 10,000 corporate and franchised stores in 70 countries.Domino's Pizza was sold to Bain Capital in 1998 and went public in 2004.

    Domino's Pizza has locations in more than 60 countries.In most cases, Domino's has master franchise agreements with one company per country, but three companies have acquired multiple master franchise agreements, covering a number of countries:
    The rights to own, operate, and franchise branches of the chain in Australia, New Zealand, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Monaco are currently owned by Australian Domino's Pizza Enterprises, having bought the master franchises from the parent company in 1993 (Australian and New Zealand franchises) and 2006 (European franchises).

    The master franchises for the UK and Ireland were purchased in 1993 by the British publicly listed Domino's Pizza Group, which acquired the master franchise for Germany in 2011 and Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Luxembourg in August 2012 by buying the Swiss master franchise holder, with an option to acquire the Austrian master franchise as well.

    The master franchises for India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh are currently owned by the Indian company Jubilant FoodWorks.

    Gotta say a big mac as a major hang over cure for me is a ripper. My stomach is settled down, my headache & shakes reduced but my thirst increased so off for a cleansing ale (: It is the only time I eat them. KFC appals me all that fat, kebab if good I do like, pizza I can have now & then from a franchise but will eat them from a local store where they are fresh with good quality ingredients.

    HI All.
    Only had one big Mack many years ago, took one bite it was so foul that I threw it in the bin. We had a little deli when we lived in the Blue Mountains, young Greek bloke run it, his hamburgers were pure heaven, never tasted one like it since. As for sweets, my wife only eats her dinner so she can have her sweet.
    Cheers Des
