Fish and chips head to rural Oxfordshire
Andrew Franklin and his son Simeon launched their Oxfordshire campaign on Monday with an early evening trip to Cropredy followed by Mollington.

Hide AdAndrew said: “We do two rounds up in Warwick already on a Tuesday and Wednesday and this is our first day in Cropredy and Mollington today and we’re looking to add other villages on as we go.”
The pair are part of the Howe and Co 66 family who specialise in mobile fish and chip vans having a fleet of 11 vehicles cross the UK.
The van is fully equipped to deliver all of the usual chip shop favourites with deep fat fryers and heated display units.
In charge of the food preparation is Simeon, who has been with the van since leaving college. He said: “I’ve been doing it now for about a year and a half. It’s not what I studied in. I studied in IT so it’s completely different.”
