The 'Pop Man'

Old perv, the Corona man

 

[Threevok]

reminds of an old school poem from my primary school days

If you have school dinners, don't sit on that side
Many have sat there. Many have died.
Look at the gravy - so lumpy and still.
If that doesn't get you - the custard will.

SPAM first arrived in the UK in 1941 as part of the US Lend-Lease agreement. They would lend us SPAM but we had to give it back after the war.

Powdered egg.
Not much else to say.

Spotted Dick

Now you're talking - !
My late ex- mother-in-law used to cook a large spotty dog as I called them, lashing of custard and serve it up for just me and my eldest son who was about ten at the time - !
Ahh, happy memories - !

How old are you?

How old are you?

Old enough to remember those 70's classics.

As a kid, my regular Monday night dinner was leftover chicken from Sunday, with chips and gravy.
I was reminded of it recently, 60 years later, when a guy on another table in a restaurant ordered chicken and chips, and asked if it would be possible to have a pot of gravy to go with it....

What happened to those trifle sponge fingers with the sugary outer coating, that used to exist when I was a kid? Trifle with those in was brilliant.

Final thought: treacle pudding and thick, thick custard. (Rather out of bounds to me now, as I am diabetic!!!!)

My Mum used to do that, break up what was left of the chicken after Sunday dinner and serve it up in a big bowl of chicken soup Monday with plenty of bread to soak up the soup.

Another firm favourite. These had a good kick.

For the nostalgia fans, Matt Lucas has posted many, many "good morning" videos from the dim and distant past, from the Sharp commercials in the 70s and 80s to some weird and wonderful shows. For example:-
