Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Ness
Jealous, Gobi. When I first started teaching I lived in Brierley Hill with Mr Ness. Actually before he became Mr Ness! ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜‚ We loved visiting a particular restaurant near to us. Think it was called The Crystal Balti? Wordsley? Might be wrong about that. It was many years ago!

I didn't know you could still get Vesta curries, I shall have to hunt one down to give the kids a giggle - but those crispy puffing up things were lovely :)

The curry house in St Albans used to collect pints from the pub for us, not sure that was completely within the "unlicensed" premises rules.

I could eat a good curry now - spag bol for dinner isn't quite the same.

I had curry from a microwave sachet last night. Bought in Home Bargains, made by Mars (yes, that Mars), but actually genuinely Indian.

I remember Vesta chow mein. Easy-cook instant food that required two pots plus a chip pan for a single serving.

(Single serving :-o ? It went round three here. Besides, everyone had a chip pan permanently to hand, usually ready-filled with fat, in them days.)
