to wonder why my posts are nearly always ignored on MN?

Am I as invisible here as in real life?

This thread is awesome!!

Sainsburys still sell Caramac bars!

Did anyone else spend their childhood eating Smash with tinned meatballs? It was our staple food on camping holidays

hums for Mash get Smash

For the men I expect there’s a keg of home brew in the garage

There must be an elderly keg of Party 7 somewhere.

Apologies Fuzzy - I didn't read down far enough - you have already offered the Party 7 (I forgot it was Watney's)

brylcreem!

My dad wore that "for that just-combed look"

Did anyone else spend their childhood eating Smash with tinned meatballs?

Unless you've had kippers and smash you haven't lived! (And if you have had kippers and smash, and lived, nothing will ever kill you!)

Caramac's lovely!

I think we need another party, seeing as how I don't remember anything about the last one (proves it was a sixties party) Some nice home-made hot food would be lovely - surely one of us has a Hostess Trolley?

Schadenfreude my mum and grandma had one of those! I inherited my gran's and it proved very useful when we hosted Christmas or Easter lunch!

Kippers and Smash? Hmmmmm might have to try that

blobby I inherited on of those too. I love it!

Hostess trolley reminds me of the hilarious Victoria Wood song, Let's Do It:

^Bend me over backwards on me 'ostess trolley.....

Party? I should cocoa.

Oh cazzie, I can see we’re going to have to watch you!

No, don't worry everyone, I'm a good girl really! That song is very funny.

And I never had kippers & smash. Ours was tinned pilchards in tomato sauce with mash. Loved it as a kid, but don't think I could eat that now if you paid me. Eurgh!

Party did you say?
Anyone for a Cherry B?

Yay! Friday Nite Party!

Oh, those glasses are so pretty, Honky! Cheers, my dear.

What about Diamond white cider? Mixed with Castaway to make a Blastaway!

chilling in my snuggly candlewick dressing gown

I LOVED candlewick!

But instead of your Advocaat - can I invite you to "do 'ave a Dubonnet"?

CHERRY B!!!!!!!

The adverts were often very educational.

For example, I thought Wan King was a town in China until I discovered Smirnoff . . . .

Now you’re talking, kirta. I’ve never had a Blastaway but something tells me it’s a once drunk, never forgotten concoction.

Loving the glasses, Honky!

I believe Dubonnet is a favourite with our own dear Queen. Do you think she’d like to come to our party? Come to think of it, how do we know she isn’t already here?
< courtesies deeply, topples over >

I have my new crimpelene trouser suit at the ready for tonight’s party with some nice hoop earrings & a scarf wrapped round my head for no reason.

Chain belt melen?

My dm special culinary delight was, spam with mash & marrowfat peas.

Oooh yes nice glit chain belt.

Myself, I shall be sporting a lovely pinafore with a huge ring on the zip and kinky boots. I may pencil on a few random eyelashes. Those that aren’t weighed down with mascara made with a paste of my own spit.
