Alliss: "The R&A should not be risking their reputation over a bag of chips."

From a Daily Mirror item not posted online but told to me by my taxi driver today:

Peter Alliss has rebuked the R&A over the cost of food and drink on course--branding £7.80 for fish and chips "disgraceful." The BBC expert said: "The R&A should not be risking their reputation over a bag of chips."

For BBC viewers or even ESPN watchers, The Guardian's Martin Kelner reviews the weekend telecast and focuses on Alliss. 

I love his low growl, and his unselfconscious use of expressions like "cor lummy, chum" to punctuate a missed putt, the kind of expletive found in pre-war children's books, invariably followed by the words "he ejaculated" and a sketch of some chap with his monocle falling out. But I love Alliss most of all because he is not Dan Walker.
