[raysun]

Zilnor in hot pants!! Bet that was a sight for sore eyes.  If you could post a pic it would cheer up us grumpy old boys.

[webejamin]

Oh Yeah Tets "Hot Pants" I used to look a right picture in em, struttin down the pub on Friday night :57:

[Lynden]

My Gran used to give us bread and dripping with salt on it. What a treat nibbler

[nibbler]

Hogs, of course they're Spanish crisps, they are like English crisps used to be in the UK. As for bread and dripping, I preferred toast, done in front of the fire then covered with so much that it soaked right through, then a bit of salt. and that was my breakfast. :72:
Liz, you may not have the waist you once had, you're just more cuddly now.
Nibbler.

[zilnor]

Tets,

I could wear  hot pants way back in the 60s. But I was somewhat slimmer than I am now, and I used to have a waist !
Oh happy days   

[zilnor]

Tets,

Kids walked everywhere in the good old days ! Played outside for hours.  Not stuck in front othe telly or computer games.
Did'nt get lifts everywhere in the car ( what car ? )

People did not walk around with a burger in one hand, can of cheap fizzy liquid crap in the other.

Kids did not have endless bags of sweets etc. No wonder very young children have fillings these days.

It is all about self -control, and parental responsibility.

Nibbler,
I don't have much of a sweet tooth so sugar sandwiches were not a favourite with me. My brother and sister liked them.

Webe,

Bread and dripping, yes please !  :72:

Another of my favourites , Toad in the Hole. My Scottish granny used to make the best Yorkshire pud  ever .

[Tetley]

Dare I mention bread and dripping :32:

corse yer can jams,that was in the 60,s when it was all very bad for yer....but we never had the" corprate supermarket" factory fed weekly Obesity shop we have today.....LOL .

Any way,as long as yer washed it down with a couple of pints of hand pulled bitter yel be fine   :57:




anybody rember Hot Pants ?    

[webejamin]

Dare I mention bread and dripping :32:

[nibbler]

Liz, I'm loathe to mention the sugar sandwiches, thick home made  butter on thick bread with sugar sprinkled all over.
Can you imagine the kids of today eating them. Happy days.
Nibbler :88:

[zilnor]

Crisp sandwiches. Ooh ! Nibbler, I have enjoyed them  for sixty or more years, along with doorstep chip sarnies !

Problem is that I could eat dozens of them years ago without putting on weight. But now if I eat eight chips with steak or fish , on it piles ! Life's a bitch !  :72:

[nibbler]

I also enjoy crisp sandwiches. yummy!!
Nibbler :bravo_2:

[zilnor]

My favourite tapas :

Patatas bravas, albondigas, piri piri prawns, boquerones, Russian salad ( forgotten the Spanish for this other than ensalada Russe)

marinated tomatoes, peppers and onions ( forgotten the name ! )

Delicioso !

[Regular nut 🥜]

We had lamb moussaka home made with a nice salad, and home baked rolls, followed by carrot cake also home made and custard , with a siglo 2006 rioja. Then I lay down on the sofa and watched the new film The mummy. While the dish washer did the rest.

[JessicaH]

Because once retired everyday is Sunday on a dull, grey cold winters day in Spain ( and we get our fair share of those) gI will often cook a roast. 
Roast a whole side of pancetta ( pork belly) and you will experience the most incredible cracking....and masses of it.
Even hanker after Brit cooked fish and chips on the odd occasion.
My favourite tapas is magras con tomate or for breakfast tostado con tomate. Like the ensaladas pescud as well and my
favourite meals here are dishes with solomillo de cerdo and mejilla buey. Neither cuts of meat were known to me in UK.

So what tapas delights do you like ?

[doreen1]

For lunch we had mussels and for dinner roast chicken and roasted Mediterranean vegetables.😍

[zilnor]

Can't beat proper tapas when in Spain.  :72:

[lmj52]

Can't help but notice that most but not all list roasts and English puds as being on the menus. Is there nobody theat enjoys and cooks Spanish food . After all we are in Spain..........

Hi, this was our last Sunday meal in Wales. From next week our meals will be different no doubt.A lot of the posts were from people living in England though. When in Spain only once had a "traditional" Sunday roast. Weather permitting we will have a varied choice on the coast.

[Dinodog]

[Lorraine]

We had fajitas with all the trimmings. and like KJH3 I hope we never have to return to the land of the Sunday roast.

[webejamin]

Chicken salad sandwich for lunch, then watch a game of football. :72: Cannelloni and a bottle of shiraz for tonight :great:

[hartcjhart]

A wonderfull piece of scotch beff roast with all the trimmings,well rude not to as I am in Scotland working,but looking forward to getting to Spain in December for some tapas and white rioja

[zilnor]

Nosun,

My step-daughter makes an excellent chicken and ham pie.  :72: Home made pies, delicious.


Byrney,

Can't beat a tapas lunch when in Spain.  :72:

[byrney]

Tapas x Tapas and a nice glass of red at Bar Amanzor.

Preceeded by a couple of games of snooker on the Playa (sea looked wonderful) and a couple of games of pool at the Cactus Bar.

My idea of a wonderful Sunday (when there is no local football to watch of course!).

[raysun]

Everyone should have a well trained marido.  Now  then where did i put mine ?? 

[JessicaH]

As long as you avoid diving in the pool, raysun, IMHO nothing nicer than a good Rioja ( Chianti.!!..r u Spain ) ? Whilst enjoying BBQ'd pancetta, green peppers and fabulous pan fried sauté pots, as only mi marido can cook them.
Now after an enjoyable day gardening its feet up watching a golden oldie on ch.343.

[zilnor]

Good replies.

Steak, humus, yoghurt, blueberries. Lemon tea.
Tapas, aiol,  crusty bread, beer.
Beef, pork, vegs, and Chianti.
Chicken and salad.


We should count our blessings each and every one of us.

Tets, please don't bring politics into a lighthearted thread.

[raysun]

Priceless,  zilnor asks  what did you have for lunch and  we have replies about brexit.
