I'm trying to decide whether I prefer my Hula Hoops in beef

or salt n vinegar.

It's a fúcking poser, and no mistake.

I haven't had Hula Hoops for about 5 years :cry:

I always have beef as soon as I get back to the UK - mainly because that is what WH Smith's sells

Do you only buy your Hula Hoops from W H Smith, la? Is it a religious thing?

Plain are best. When you open a packet of beef crisps, you are engulfed in an unholy stench of death :-(

I knew a chap at school who ate Bovril crisps until his breath was virtually toxic and people no longer wanted anything to do with him.

He went on to become a hardline Islamic type.

There's a lesson for us all there, I think.

Actually, I'd forgotten all about Bovril. When I return to the north in winter, I think I'm going to fill mynthermos with Bovril instead of tea. I may add a drop of scotch to keep the chill out.

Actually, I loved Bovril as a kid. I've enjoyed it on football terraces, as well - particularly at Stockport's Edgeley Park where it was know charmingly as 'beefy drink'.

That's what it was called at Highbury and the Emirates, as well. The glw was always unimpressed with my half-time choice of beverage.

Well she is the one who has to kiss you, to be fair. I remember it being called 'beef drink' or 'hot beef drink' at Highbury, but I may be wrong. I didn't know we still did it, as I always have sh1t beer instead. :-(

Plain ones are ok if you can add additional salt imo. Otherwise they're a bit bland.

I have to do it with Ritz crackers these days. Seriously, the whole point of a Ritz cracker is the lumps of salt, surely?

I've never taken a flask, or even owned one, until now. I have the Bovril too to put in it.

I once saw a tube of Primula cheese with, wait for it, prawns.

The really distressing part of the story is that I bought the tube of Primula cheese with prawns, and I ate the tube of Primula cheese with prawns. :-(

Indeed. You'd take a Carr's Melt home to meet mother, but for a good dirty weekend, your Ritz cracker's the thing.

I don't think I've ever knowingly eaten Primula cheese. Does this mean I'm part of the out-of-touch metropolitan liberal elite?

I think the liberal elite eat Primula cheese, but ironically. It's basically Dairylea in a toothpaste tube, but the addition of prawns was a work of genius.

Do the prawns not block up the nozzle?

Dear God, that would be monstrous; the barbarous act of, I dfon't know, a protestant, perhaps!
