I always known them as "pommes pont neuf".....
The problem of having a catering background, I guess.

You've just made my mouth water Keith!! When I was a nipper, my mum and I used to visit my nan every Wednesday. On the way back we would get off the bus and get fish and chips (cooked in real fat) wrapped in newspaper, with lashings of salt and vinegar. Cost - 1s/6d. (One shilling and sixpence - or 7 1/2p)

Aaaah! Nostalgia is not what it used to be!!

People say 'The good old days' and 'things were safer then.' Of course they were safer - there was nothing worth nicking! The worst you could expect was a couple of blokes in the Dog and Duck trying to sell you a hot mangle!

Sex education never existed either!!! I remember my father sitting me on his knee and telling me about the birds and the bees......ah! to be twenty six again!
He told me that a menstrual cycle was something only women had - for the next five years I thought it was a pink one with a basket and a bell!!

Of course, today, people are a lot more open about sex! A guy asked me the other day if I was gay, and I replied that I was quite happy!! In fact, happiness is an abstract concept isn't it really? I mean, you can meet your best mate in the street who shouts over - 'Hey Al, you ok?' You reply - 'Yes mate, couldn't be better' - and because you are looking at him - you walk straight in front of a Ceres Liner!!!!

Speaking of Ceres Liners, I went on a cruise once - well, I say a cruise, it was really a rowing boat in our local park boating lake! But it felt like a cruise to me - I was afloat on the briny - cast away from the safety and security of Moss Side!! I rowed, eventually, to a desert island in the middle of the boating lake. I say eventually because it took me three hours to realise that both oars had to be manipulated in the same direction - mind you, the dizziness I felt was a lot cheaper than 12 pints of John Smiths!

Arriving exhausted on the island I met a VISION!!!! She was stunningly beautiful - and what's more - completely naked!!!! Stroking her bush, which I think was a privet - she asked me seductively if I would like to play around.

'MY GOD!!!!' I thought, 'She has a set of golf clubs hidden away!!!!'

And then, just as I was getting my balls ready and hoping for a hole in one, I heard that never-to-be-forgotten phrase floating through the depths of Stamford Park boating lake - 'Come in number 37!'

Yes, I remember good old fish and chips!!!!!

Al.
