What is with the Friday is Fish and Chips day in all staff canteens the country over.

I'm sure there is some reason why Friday is Fish day?

From the depths of my memory something to do with Jewish traditions and day of rest, but that could be me thinking of American Jewish plot to take over hte world.

(see speakers corner, cna't be bothered to link as it seems to much like work, and that don't happen on fridays, or mondays, or any other time I come to think of it).
 
Because fish all go out drinking on a thursday afternoon, and they all get caught on the way home because they're staggering around and not paying attention.

This leads to a bumper catch, and that needs to be eaten, dunnit.

Angus Griffin: So, we're all clear on the rules then. No Jews and no blacks.
Scottish men: Aye.
 
Something to do with not having meat on Fridays. Also, its Fryday.

Mini cheddars, crunchie and can of sprite for me though. Already had a saussage sarnie and a bit of lemon cheesecake.

I had already sort of guessed it a no meat rule, but why? and what is with Mushy peas?

Peas are nice little green cratures who live at the bottom of my garden, there is a lottery and the winners get to go to "the big house" to meat me and my pan of boiling water.

Mushy peas is just torture.
