Flan case with sliced strawberries (or even tinned peach slices) put inside with cream poured over.

Did somebody say "Flan"?

Oh no, it's the Phantom Flan Flinger!

Proper trifles, and Eton mess with genuine merangue not the synthetic crunchy stuff which feels and tastes like powdery dried polyfiller!

I have to say it tastes fantastic when it is actually served in Eton. I was just sitting there grinning at the bowl.

We still make that

I've still got a toffee hammer somewhere.

We had Jubblys down here in Wales too.

And TipTops.

From the ark: Five Boys chocolate bar.

Fry's mini eggs, same size as the Cadbury creme ones, but split into two & filled with marzipan or coconut ice or something similar.

Yeah Tip Tops

Toffee which came with a small hammer.

Cans of TAB

Wimpy served on a plate.

And jubbly in the summer. But you might not know what they are unless you grew up in the midlands.

There's a couple of packets of ancient* jelly I could make up and a tin of equally ancient *evap that would go with it just fine.

*pre 2014 at a guess, having inherited them.

Inneresting.

And you think the ban hammer should fall swiftly and decisively but we seem to have this cycle where we put up with it to a point and then ban it but he knows he is pandered to in the early days so will just do it again? Why not strike early, cut the snakes head off and not give him the reason to just come back again. Seems ridiculous to me. He'll 100% get banned at some point so why not do it early. No one wants him here so what pander to him?

Did you ever enjoy a Wimpy Bender Brunch?

I certainly remember swimming classes in the Beau Street Baths and then going on to the Wimpy afterwards. On one occasion, our PE master treated us all to a Bender Brunch followed by a Brown Derby.

I remember giving our local Wimpy Bar a similar send off a few years ago when I went in for a "Bender Brunch" and a Knickerbocker Glory.

we would always go for a Bender Brunch and a Knickerbocker Glory in the Wimpy next door.
