Crikey, sausage rolls and salad? We'd get dripping on bread and angels delight on Sunday afternoon.
It was always wheeled out at 5pm ish.

Dripping on bread..I can remember my dad doing that but toasting it first over an open fire.
What about a tin of fruit salad with two rounds of council house sliced white and margarine?

Just while we're having a cartwheel down memory lane,this is one that you will definitely have to be of a certain age to remember.
The theme tune to Thats Life on a Sunday night and knowing you'd got school the next morning.

Time to unpack the 42” tower fan tomorrow, shame it doesn’t have AC attached

I don’t know if you have heard of this. It’s a strange invention. They call it ice. It cools thing down. Us crazy Yankees in the states use it to cool off drinks.
Smartass grins

You sound so Monty Python

And let us not forget the ever smiling assistants. Queen of them all, Debbie McGee.

Was that Paul Daniels wife??

Me too

Ok. Time for me English to Yankee translation.
Sausage roll? Is that like pig in a blanket?
A sausage link with a roll wrapped around it? Baked in the oven

 

[English_guy_bkk]

Me too

I think it was coordinated to an old chap in the corner of the set.
I'm struggling but he wore a dinner jacket.

The real luxury of dripping on toast was getting a bit of the salty meat jelly from underneath the dripping. Yum!

Yeah but Esther with those front teeth.
She could eat an apple through a tennis racket with those two front teeth.

Yes she was asked what first attracted het to the multi millionaire Paul Daniels.

was it his wig?

 

[Btq97]

was it his wig?

No I think it was his personality charm and good good looks

 

[Btq97]

I’d convert if Jim Bowen were Pope

Let's see what you could have won

 

[daystate]

Did he keep all of those things in his wallet in the glovebox of his rolls royce?

 

[Btq97]

No he had a man with a bag to carry them round in.

 

[Btq97]

After tea on Sunday, we kids would out and play 'kerbs' or go down a steep hill while sitting on a small piece of wood atop roller skate.

Roller skate - luxury - we would drag each other over the gravel

 

[daystate]

No he had a man with a bag to carry them round in.

Only one man?
