Was going to suggest the Desert Orchid Panto Prince VC race, but have a feeling it might be a Cup upset instead?

I give up Ronnie. It was Desert Orchids year but not this day. Hillsborough was later but the Kegworth crash was about this date. Let us know, son.

Haven’t made chips for years I must admit.  Aldi’s “The Fishmonger” battered haddock is excellent.  Often give that 20 mins in the air fryer and never disappointed.  Love

Met a couple of old boys on holiday in Corfu who kept everyone entertained with great tales. They said that during the war their local chip shop had a notice in the window which read-Because of Hitler the fish are littler and due to Himmler the chips are similer. Most on here will have heard of this before but was good at the time. And it was around 37 years ago.Laugh
