My mam used Squash Concentrate - mental stuff straight. Tropicana was a dream as a child.
Innocent is far from it on the price front - had a chat with her one day about it, on the way out the door to a top golf course and McGuirks on the way
There is nothing as mad as top of the range golf balls at 4 euro a piece - I don't buy but have looked , can golfers complain.
Coke 1.62 euro, mental
Sliced Ham over 20 euro / Kg, if you don't look.
I'm awfull for not looking at prices.0 -

I'm still hanging onto my 20's, 6months left of them as of tomorrow....But I used to remember when corned beef was 99p a Lb, and ham was 2.75 a lb.
Parents had me working in our shop since I was 7.... Let me loose on the slicing machine when I turned 10!!!!
I was the best in the business after a few years. The farmers wives used to ask for me to cut their meat especially.
I was throwing out wafer thin ham on request long before the Celtic tiger marketers jumped on board.
Corned Beef (or corn beef as it was pronounced) still makes me shudder.
Those farmers used to eat their weight in luncheon or corned beef daily. Ham was a nicety saved for calving session or when they had the silage in.0 -

From somewhere in the depths of my mind comes the word "Brawn". I never ate it but remember seeing it and thinking that it must be composed of some fairly unwanted bits to make it so gelatinous looking and very suitable for hard working men? Did you serve it?0 -

No, just the holy trinity. Ham, Luncheon & Corned beef.
Corned beef is made up of some unwanted bits (well, I've never asked but can hazzard a good guess ) and is also gelatinous.
I think Brawn takes it to a whole different level, from what I know, it includes corned beef and also other meat off cuts.
I can't get the smell of corned beef from my nostrils now

Aj - you sound like Michael O'leary - did you sell scratch cards with the ham.
BTW - I'm metric on ham and imperial on wedges.0 -

You'd be surprise how many scratch cards I sold!
I'd safely say there was more money wagered on scratch cards by grannies than spent in Paddy Power by their other halfs.
The old dears were gas. They'd never be seen buying them. They'd wait until the shop shop was empty... "10 scratch cards please".... Gambling grannies anonymous
BTW - I'm imperial on Ham and Majestic on Wedges
