Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

what's left? ..... ask bob crowe!

Why is Spam a luxury food in South Korea?

I remember when we use to fry it

i remember it as vile fritters oozing fat when i was about 10

Am a vegan/vegi , been one for over 20 years but still eat egg's free range oganic and fish.

'Ripped off'

The 24-hour drinking laws have proved to be a disaster, according to the Daily Mail's lead.

The paper quotes the Chief Constable of Northamptonshire Police, who describes the "cafe culture" as an entirely legitimate experiment which has not worked.

And the Daily Telegraph reports that not a single council has imposed a new fee on bars and clubs to help pay for dealing with the effects of late-night drinking despite having the power for almost a year.

in that case you are not even a veggie, let alone a vegan!!!

re spam - i'm referring back 55+ years ago!

Happy school dinners!

Feckin' 'ell cynners you mean I was eatin' spam all that time. :>))

Aye memories, wasn't it until the late sixties until supermarkets came along that diets increased significantly. I can still remember in those days when tin peaches and coni oni, Carnation evaporated milk was a Saturday night treat yeuk! :O) My Grandad due to a shortage of milk during the war had it in his tea right up to when he died in 1993.

Hey I those were the days, remember the teaspoon of cod liver oil every morning and a dessert spoon of undiluted orange, and then a bottle of milk in the morning and in the afternoon at school, by heck hey those were the days.

Penny for a bag of chips and if you were lucky 5 pennys for your returned bottles at the off licence and then their was the rag and bone man with his horse and cart, a shilling for your old clothes.

By gum them days were grand.

Spam Fritters @Tesco.. ASDA...

aldo - do we keep a kosher house? .... no, but i do not think that that method of killing is (now) nearly as cruel as it sounds ..... indeed, probably no more so than via an abattoir ..... there were of course very good health reasons for kosher and halal slaughter, but i'm sure you're aware of that
