    Default Hungry House advert

    Watched the Hungry house advert earlier boasting that even Astronauts in space were able to get a takeaway delivered by using their website. I went onto their site out of curiosity and entered my postcode. No surprises, they may be able to deliver to the moon, but not Caithness!!! Well it actually shows up that 2 businesses cover up here, but both of them are bogus? Unbelievable, you think they would check their capabilities before airing an ad with such outrageous claims??

    Why would anyone want to order takeaway food through an intermediary? They are only going to take their commission. Have folk forgotten how to pick up a phone these days and speak to someone?

    Well... According to the website "Greasy Fried Squid in Marchal" will deliver to Castletown.
