What made you smile recently?

In the spirit of Wimbledon fortnight I bought a punnet of strawberries and looked to the internet for the best way to serve them.
It suggested that I halve the strawberries, dust with icing sugar, and pile cream on top.

A word to the wise - pile cream tastes disgusting.

That's our son exactly, I'd give him $10 when he was a teen to go to the shops and get milk and sugar, he'd come back with cream and some veges, and no change.

That's what you do when you don't want to do that chore any longer.

It's a running joke in our house when the kids are here. One of many. Lol

Does anyone remember the television advertisement (I think it was Plumrose) - The kid going to the shops reciting "chopped ham with pork" over and over again?

When he finally arrived at the shop he asked for "plopped ham with chalk".

Advertisements were simple in the sixties.

What's Plumrose?

I know what you are saying, just different players in the play.

What's Plumrose?

I've always considered ham to be pork.

Not 100-percent sure, but perhaps because ham is pork?

My mate had two tickets for the England vs Italy on Sunday. He didn't realise that it was going to be on the same day as his wedding, so he can't go!! If you're interested and want to go instead of him, it's at St. Andrew's Church in Cambridge and her name is Sarah.
