edit: there's a bunch of airforce blokes in the foreground, looking at the challenge table.............

i don't buy prawns

I can eat that
i like my meat cooked tho
and the prawn coctail would take me a while

Airforce lads are still there. One in the glasses looks a right geek. Must be a navigator or something

Don't forget Texas does have a coast

They call theirs shrimps

amarillo is far from the coast though. hmmmmmm. i'm always wary of seafood anyway even more so where the sea is a far distance away lol.

Knowing how the yanks are always 'that much' out their shrimps could be freshwater !!!

still no one at the table.......

I know. Rather disapointing really.

It's barely dinnertime there though, probably be a few on tonight (their time)

All shut and closed now, lol.

I reckon that would be pretty difficult. I cooked a 2lb porterhouse for myself when i was in the states and that was pretty tough going with chips and salad. Then again im not the biggest person in the world.

P.S the airforce men probably get it free anyway as the people of America respect their forces men/women and give them the perks that they deserve.

Yeah about the same as our forces do i believe (pittance) I am all for their way of doing things the general public give them discounts and they never have to wait in a Que at a restaurant.

Sod that, back of the line! They do a job, they get paid. I do a job, I get paid. Why should they get special treatment?

I'll give my place up to a paramedic or policeman/woman in the queue at Tesco cause I know they're catching a break while on shift... but why should the forces - while they're on their holidays - get to push infront?
