80's ?? That's modern for some of us !!!!
Can you still get those pub packets of crackers, fake dairylea and a pickled onion too ? What about the cockle sellers on a Fri/Sat night?
There's no pubs left Wash
and even if there were any the Health & Safety fascists would have had the cockle sellers shot at dawn a long time ago 
RE: thread to talk about anything but sport/football - Thurnscoe_OWL - 20-05-2015
my mum keeps telling me stories about cockle sellers. Can't imagine they'd be popular nowadays.
I can't stand cockles or mussles
RE: thread to talk about anything but sport/football - St Charles Owl - 20-05-2015
It was scary when you think about it, they used to walk into the pub I worked in with a tray of open polystyrene cups on it with cockles or mussels in them soaked in vinegar!! There was no way of knowing where the hell they came from or how long he had been trying to sell them!!! Yet people always bought them!!
RE: thread to talk about anything but sport/football - Thurnscoe_OWL - 20-05-2015
My Nannan apparently drank the leftover vinegar
What a strange concept cockle sellers are

Loved them with plenty of vinegar and a pint er stoonzes. Liked whelks too.
RE: thread to talk about anything but sport/football - Thurnscoe_OWL - 21-05-2015
there's not much that I don't like food wise but mussels, cockles and whelks are things that I cant stomach at all. Think it's the texture, like chewing on one of them little tyres out of a box of lego

We are made of sterner stuff than the play station generation
There's nowt like playing out as a kid and ingesting all the dirt and grime that goes with it to ward off "intolerance's" in later life The PS generation have lived a sanitised life and have no immune system Bring on the whelks
and the Stones'
but not the Wards 
RE: thread to talk about anything but sport/football - St Charles Owl - 21-05-2015
I always liked Wards!!!
I couldn't eat any of those things as they always had sand in them and I can't stand that!!!

I played out and played PlayStation in equal amounts
Hardly ever get ill either. Couple of Christmases ago my whole family got norovirus apart from me who then had to look after everyone
and I can handle a pint of stones
