"Whenever I come back to Cheltenham from the Wars I always have to visit Charles Takeway after 40 years of being a customer. I hope old Charles is still going well and supervising the youngsters. Before I enter the shop after a 5 year break Charles's Cypriot nephew (balding now! has a giant piece of haddock ready to drop into the fryer without asking. Cooked to perfection as always and I stand at the end of counter pigging out. Great place and everyone works hard to please a diverse group of clients, drunk or sober. Spies from GCHQ and the police use Charles Takeaway. It's a pity that security is required outside the door due to the pondlife who can't hold their liquor and make fools of themselves at weekends. Drooling at the mouth right now a few thousand miles away in Afghanistan in the mountains thinking about fish and chips. The only placd to match Charles Takeaway is the Shanghai Brewery, Shanghai where a chef from Birmingham serves up delicious cod and chips with Filipina waitresses and a micro brewery too."
