drives a top of the range merc to go get all this reduced food.

Nothing wrong with reduced sandwiches, as you could add several days to the date.

I wouldn't pay full price, as prefer to make my own but, as it happens, on Monday I bought a well stuffed prawn sandwich for £1.34,
from Tesco and had it just yesterday.

As it happens, again, I just popped to the Tesco Express for some vino and other bits, and picked up 3 packs of baked potatoes with cheese,
for 70p each (I certainly wouldn't pay £2.00 for them, but they are also freezable which is great)!

Also an Egg & Cress sandwich for 59p (was £1.10) and a Chicken & Asparagus Risotto for £1.03 (was £2.65)...

Now that's a result, but also, "Hardys Crest" wine....2 for £10.00....

Chuffing rave on, or what!

Went to see my dad yesterday, he bought a fray bentos pie but ended up throwing it in the bin, as it broke both his Can openers.

The two I've had for ages may either be just kept till eternity, or binned now, or cooked and probably then binned!

Think I may as well go with the last option (if indeed I can open them) and report back here with a score!

Nothing's as good as 40 years ago...eg "Wagon Wheels" are now "Skateboard Wheels"......

TVs are better technically speaking, pity it`s all rubbish being shown now, cheap cooking, quiz and reality shows for the plebs.

Same with cars, technically superior but they all look the same and have no character. In 70s for example, I could name every car - there is a Capri, an Anglia, a Zephyr, a Princess, now I wouldn`t know one from another.

Same with snooker players. All clones now with no characters like Big Bill, the Hurricane, Dracula, etc.

It was a treat 40 years ago getting a football match or race meeting on tv, now there is a game or race every five minutes. They are ruining sport with Overkill.

Maybe it`s because I`m getting old, but I wish I could go back in time.

Food in shops all crap now. People living on frozen microwave meals or meals from fast food outlets so that they can get back on twitter or facebook as quickly as possible. And that`s another thing, much better when if one had to make a phone call, one had to walk up to the town to use one in a big red box. Now they are going about with phones glued to their ears and we, the public who don`t use them, are getting zapped continuously by radiation every time one goes out the door. I fear for the younger generation`s health in later years.

p.s. I never really liked Fray Bentos pies anyway.

TV is way better than it was.

1.  HD and size of screen (and colour FFS)
2.  Variety...loads of choice (I accept that a load of the channels are rubbish)
3.  No white dot at 11.30 or whenever.
4.  Netflix, Amazon etc offers a phenomenal amount of films and programming
5.  Sport - incredible coverage across lots of sports
6.  Sky+ etc.  Record and watch when you want. (I hardly ever have to sit through ads any more)

Sure its not perfect, but defo much better than it ever has ever been.

tv is better if you watch it!
im not a big tv fan but I do have netflix as got addicted to narcos!!
