Wimpy

I had a blast from the past today in Lowestoft. I didn’t know Wimpy was still about?! This one has had a recent refurb too.

This took me back to my childhood. It was the ‘fast food’ chain my Mum preferred. Why? Because they did one burger that came in a brown roll. I’m guessing that was to make it slightly more healthy.

My nearest Wimpy growing up was in Brighton. So going was quite the treat. That was the thing back then. It was a rarity rather than a food group.

Even now I can remember the excitement. It was waitress service too. Like the American diners you saw in movies. As a kid, I felt rather sophisticated. Oh how things have changed.

Anyone who knows my Mum will know her love of a frothy coffee. So today I took her one when I went to visit her. It put a smile on her face.

She’s doing well but not ready to come home yet. Dad is also doing well. And actually listening to me telling him to rest.

He wanted a burger for dinner. So good daughter that I am, I drove to Hickstead to get him Burger King. Well makes a change from driving to Hickstead to watch horses.
