Meet the couple thats eaten at McDonalds every day for 17 years

A Brit couple are so in love with McDonalds fast food that they have spent over 20,000 pounds over the past 17 years eating at their local outlet.

London, Aug 16 : A Brit couple are so in love with McDonald's fast food that they have spent over 20,000 pounds over the past 17 years eating at their local outlet.

Lee and Mary Humphrey, both 84, never order anything except a double hamburger each with a shared large fries, and have also vowed never to eat out anywhere else.

"We both order a double hamburger with one portion of chips between us, Lee has a cup of coffee and I give him one of my hamburgers, so I have one burger and he has three," Metro.co.uk quoted Mary Humphrey, as saying.

"I did once try a Deli sandwich but that was way too much for me, I could barely move.

"We call McDonald's 'the office' now and our relatives will ask us how the office is and joke about it.

"We never go to any other restaurants, you'll never see us anywhere else," she said.

What's more, they even decided to move house two years ago so they could be within walking distance of the restaurant - which they go to at 11am every day without fail.

And, McDonald's has certainly recognised their loyalty, for they even have their own table at the high street eaterie in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

McDonald's branch manager Sarah Wright said: "Mary and Lee are our best customers, they always have a chat with us and it wouldn't be the same here without them.

"We always have their food ready for them and if they don't come in on time we wonder where they are. They're a pleasure to have here."
