Steak Canadian and the Rockin' Boys

I couldn't believe my eyes down at Farmfoods. There in the frozen food compartment was a pile of Steak Canadian! Those flat wafer-thin steaks that fried in seconds! 

Wow! Cor! Did that bring back memories. Back in the mid 1970's I'd invite mates round to listen to rockers like Budgie, Skynyrd and Rush on the music-centre in my Folks' breakfast room. I'd raid the chest freezer in the shed and grab some steak canadian. Then I'd peel spuds, slice 'em up and make fab home-made chips. Topped off with marrowfat peas, it was the real reason my rockin' mates came round! 😃 Sometimes I'd change the menu to include frozen chicken and mushroom pies - with my own gravy. I even knew how to make a roux! I was way better at cooking age 14 than I am now! 

I shall once again relive those halcyon days soon and make the steak Canadian special again and crank up the stereo. Alas, the rockin' boys are distant memories now. 

Did you, do you like Steak Canadian? 🎸

The bottom one by Barry Webb looks like an alien eyeball city! 

Only nature could pull that off! 

What do you think?

Waffling

Not having had enough yesterday on Pancake Day our Moonbase grandkids made waffles this morning, with a little help from us. 

It's waffle Wednesday! 

Do you like waffles? 

Recovery Mode

Some of my die-cast pick-ups.

The yellow one is a SIKU ADAC car recovery truck.

Polistil Personalities

 I love these die-casts. I came across them ages ago and the pics languished in my archive. 

Alas I don't know that the characters really -are they TV personalities (I know the Smurfs).

The make is Polistil.

Do you know them?
