Daft crazes remembered.....

[Mosaic]

Chicken in a basket - what the blazes was that all about?
Does anywhere still serve 'inna basket' meals?

[Zeuhl]

(sorry back to Abigail's Party)

[Mosaic]

Was it stardust Zeuhl?

[murraymints]

bulls blood....

[Zeuhl]

[Mosaic]

Bull's Blood, and what was that Rielsing - a Yugoslav name I think...

[daftgrandad]

Think that was Spacedust Zeuhl.

[Zeuhl]

What happened if you snorted it?

[Mosaic]

Those ashtrays with a lid that spun round when you pushed a knob-thing down - my aunties even had these on a stand like a side tale.

I first enjoyed a chicken in the basket at a pub after arriving in England in 1970. Enjoyed it then & still enjoy this meal now from time to time. I invested in six baskets.

[Mosaic]

Zeuhl - I think it would be like those sneezes that don't come out, but a but hurty.

[EcclesCake]

Foil covered turnip??? We were posh and only ever used half a grapefruit!

[Prudie]

Mateus Rose and Ruffino Chianti in the straw covered bottles

[Mosaic]

I didn't know what a grapefruit was til they let me out of the pit as I got too tall for dragging trucks. You were lucky, we had it rough.

Keyty, I could not believe my eyes when I saw Vesta curries in a box for sale last week in B&Ms!

[Mosaic]

I thought those straw-covered bottles were the bees knees!

[Zeuhl]

Oh! mum used to do Vesta Chow Mein with crispy noodles.

my very first exotic food.

[hc4361]

Mosaic, those spin top ashtrays were the best. Better than looking at a load of old fag ends in a saucer.

[Mosaic]

Those pot shire horses...

[Zeuhl]

sorry

B&Ms???
