True, but how long does it take to set up your cardboard box ?

I remember a time when Atw updates were of a man set to change the world.

Rome was not build in one day.

Nothing wrong with Parma Ham and melon hyperD! I wouldn't soak it in port however. Just a generous sprinkling of freshly-ground black pepper.

Must idmit the presentation of the one in your photo is less than tip-top!

Many of these derided 1970's dishes are actually very good if you prepare them simply, and with good ingredients - prawn cocktails can be great!

Indeed, it was most pleasant. I made it into a little galleon with orange slice sails, parma ham canons and some melon balls as cannon shot...Caribbean Pirate would have been proud of this cuisinary creation.

Not tried pepper on it - will do next time... ta!

When do you get your first million ?

Shutup and get back on the barbie!

A blast from the past of seedy, 70's, kitsch, quasi-Italian restaurants in middle class England: melon and parma ham soaked in port.

Lunch is for wimps. Those at the coal face of IT never stop to eat.

Or stop to post tulipe on forums, eh?

My lunch waits like an old roue'
so confident, I'll go his way
whistle to him
and the passing time...
my lunch waits like a bible truth
at the funeral of my youth
we drank for that -
the passing time..
My lunch waits like
a witch at night
as surely as our love is right
let's not think of that or the passing time

But whatever lies behind the door
there is nothing much to do...
angel or devil, I don't care
for in front of that door...
there is A PIE.

Isn't 'Pie' slang for something ?

[Fleetwood]

Two cup's of tea.
