Shït service... Do you say something...?

"should"

So a restatement would say there are ca 24,000 non curry FS restaurants in the UK of which about 1/3 are chains. Does that sound more reasonable

Yeah, that feels like more plausible numbers.

(I wasn't doubting you in the first place, I was just surprised)

me too - but that's also on the basis of my nearest 'place to eat' is Guildford and like most High Streets (OK, affluent ones, I know the death of the high st etc.) almost every other restaurant is a chain one.

Then I thought of my nearest actual place to eat and it's a curry place, then I thought of where I used to live and that has (had, I moved 18 years ago) an Italian, a Greek/Med, and two curry places, and so with a bit of thought that made me wonder how many of those 35K were curry places.

One in three still surprises me, even with that very rudimentary count showing 50% +
