You had it lucky we used to live in a hole in the ground and in the middle of the road.

What a "state" for an estate to be in.

[happy daze john in oz]

Oh yes the 50's when,

A take away was a mathmatical problem,

Crips came in one flavor and you added salt

Rice came as pudding

A big Mac was what you wore in the rain

Eating out meant you were camping

Only the poor ate brown bread

Only the poor ate uncooked fish, sushi had not been heard of

No one ate seaweed

Cube sugar on the table meant some one of importance was coming

Bread was sliced at home

Food was cooked in fat, oil was what you put in the car engine

Potatoes were always peeled unless baked jacket.

OH Dear , nostalgia aint what it used to be !!!.
