Retraction

Following the efforts of one Tom Dedman, I completely retract my previous statement about frozen chips being awful. Mr Dedman cooked me the chips as per the instructions in the comments of the post below and they were actually quite good. I think my biggest problem is that i'm not a massive fan of chips to begin with, so when they're not cooked properly (as frozen chips often aren't) I have absolutely no time for them..
It is yet to be seen whether it was the quality of chip or Tom's skill at cooking the chip that was the deciding factor...
