A man who runs a fish and chip shop is being investigated by the council after someone complained that his shop smelt of -shock, horror- fish and chips.

Even the council said that they weren't too sure what was going on, but were required to investigate. Non-story.

Council in a loose-loose situation. If they do they look like acting as part of a Nanny State. If they don't, well, they're not listening to their borough members.

Something fishy was going on at the shop.
Sorry, the pun was there and I took it. I am a sick person.

Good to see you again Adrian. Yes, it seems that you do need help too.Or did the plaintiff simply have a chip on his shoulder?
God, Gregoshi, we both need professional help.
Must...resist...further...puns...failing...
1) Adrian, either the plaintiff had a chip on his shoulder or he did it just for the halibut.
2) After being told of the complaint that his shop smelt of fish and chips, the shop owner told authorities, "You're crazy. I don't even sell smelt."

I think the problem is more with the idiot who complained about it in the first place-

If the person lodging the complaint moved in knowing of the restaurant, then it seems to me it is his/her problem, not the shop's. If the person was living there before the shop moved in, then maybe they have a legitimate complaint. It seems odd that an Englishman would complain about the smell of fish and chips - unless the person isn't English.

I've always wished Long John Silvers (the closest we get to fish-and-chips) smelt more like Burger King [:/sarcasm off:]

Good point. Otherwise they'd be accused of letting him off the hook.

When the chips are down, you've got to make a decision. No chance to skate round the issue. Otherwise it's just rubbing salt in the wound. Now pay attention, and you'll ketchup.Come on, they are just passing the hot potato around.

Adrian, that pun was half-baked.Come on, they are just passing the hot potato around.
If the owner of the fish and chips shop is found guilty, do you think he'll fry?
I'm right be-Heinz you.

Some posters here are angling to get this post locked. Although there are some kraken puns in it.
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
