Today's Special: What's taking you so long?

The focus of this blog is, of course, the delights of South London takeaway menus.

(I included the last in that list because it rhymed, but frankly cards in the windows of many South London newsagents do fall into that category.)

I have therefore decided to institute a special category – "Today's Special" in which I look beyond menus for chunks of comedy goodness. I begin with this lovely mailshot from a cleaner:
