First curry I ever had was a Vesta. I kept asking for them every Friday night when we usually had a chippy. Christ, nowadays fish, chips and peas is pushing £7.50, and even foodbanks give you back a Vesta if you try to foist one on them.

Yes, tastes change. I remember those tinned 'floppy' burgers as well, Goblin weren't they? As kids we ate what our parents could afford and I'm sure they would have loved to feed us steak, lightly grilled rod caught salmon etc. etc but we needed lights and heating as well.

Corned beef and spam go a lot further back than the 70's mate. I remember those crispy pancakes <laugh>

What about Cabury's Smash :emoticon-0119-puke: or pineapple on sticks at parties what was that about?

Mars One's one way mission is the right idea. I don't think making it funded by reality TV is a good idea though. No reality show stays THAT popular long enough to make Mars One financially sound.

Suppose it depends how space crazy the first lot get. The Ultimate Big Brother Show, diary room..sex, fights and horror as they each take a walk out the airlock when they've had enough...

My uncle used to take me with my cousins there as well, I'd not eaten them for donkeys until quite recently and I remembered how good they were. I've always loved mussels
