KrazyDad Spins Wheel of Lunch

Wheeloffood_preview Wow! A near perfect invention. Called the Wheel of Lunch, it saves you the terrible trouble and stress of having to decide for yourself which restaurant to eat in. Just click on the wheel, type in your post code and it decides for you, randomly selecting from the best scofferies in your area. Alas, the Wheel only works for the US at the moment. But if you lobby it's inventor, a chap called KrazyDad, I'm sure he'll come up with a UK version....

Krazydad here. I'll be happy to do a UK version of the wheel - I just need to find an RSS feed (or other XML feed) that will return a list of local eateries, given a UK postal code. The US version is using a similar service from Yahoo Local, but I don't think this exists yet in the UK. If you find a similar service for the UK, send it my way!
