rhythmworx Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Minute steak, pull it out the freezer slap a slice in a dry hot pan for 30 seconds while you get the bread out, throw it on the bread and add brown sauce. I think people call it steak Canadian now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannork Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Jeez, you're right, and there was another marmalade jar, fat with a sweet green marmalade, what was the name? Rose's Lime Marmalade. They also made Lime Cordial. Thanks for that Karen, I found the marmalade a bit on the sweet side, 2 or 3 pieces of toast were enough with it, but the jars were great for storing all kinds of essential items for kids. A boiled egg, timed to perfection, solidifying but still runny, then attacked by toast soldiers,( i think we called them that), delicious with the right butter and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannork Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Jackanory. Blue Peter with Valerie Singleton, Peter Purvis and John Noakes. Petra the dog and Jason the cat. Wacky Races. Vision On. The Tomorrow People. Tiswas. Mike Yarwood. Dick Emery. Stanley Baxter. The Two Ronnies. Dad's Army. And most people didn't realise that Larry Grayson and his humour was gay. Go shep go! I never took to Peter Purvis- apart from his dodgy surname he always seemed a bit morose to me, unlike happy John, and as for Val,.I had a crush on her, especially after she wore a Roman toga in one episode that revealed a little too much.

Watching The Man from Uncle whilst mother was ironing, she told me she used to go out with Robert Vaughan before she met my dad. Nonsense of course but very impressed with this, I put my hand up earnestly when the teacher asked us if we had any exciting news from the holidays. On telling the class my riveting piece of news, the teacher brusquely replied, 'Don't be stupid boy,Robert Vaughan inhabits the glamorous world of Hollywood, you, on the other hand, live in one of the least desirable areas of England' To sniggers all round I wanted to disappear. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
