Nothing wrong with either of those, jellied tripe and proper home-made chips were childhood treats.

I eat anything and will try everything

Tripe of any description isn’t something I get on with

 

[chrisbeee]

Another upgrade could be adding some power factor correction capacitors

That sounds a little out of my depth...
I’ll just stick to the basics; liner/earth return clamp/ fan / proper regulator/Proper Gas

"When I were a lad" , you had to eat what was put in front of you and leave nothing on the plate....

If you said you didn't like it and tried to 'negotiate' something else, you went hungry and it came back at the next meal. That was a lesson you learned quickly.......

we were the same, but never had to do battle with tripe

Tripe is a delight. There are so many different ways to serve it, and so many different tripes.

I didn't eat meat till my late teens so my mother just stopped putting it on my plate and I had a dinner but without meat. She always said it was because I was too idle to chew it

It isn't. It just has no place on a plate.

 

[Seadog]

I can't believe that I'm hearing that from a northern lad

 

[pedrobedro]

My favourite recipe for tripe is to put lots of olive oil on it so it slides easily off the plate into the bin.

Black pudding's on that list too.

You bunch of heathens

Mat's no different. I never did get to go to this restaurant

At lunch in junior school an older child was put in charge of each table, the girl in charge of my table hated me with a vengeance for some reason. She would make me eat everything I didnt wnt to. That was until the day she tried feeding me Sprouts. She managed to get me to eat 2 before they and eveything else I had eaten that yr came out at great force, unfortunately [for her] she was screaming at me in the face. She got a gob full. She was never the same after that.

Maybe best we don't get to learn the underlying reason....?

That's both funny & disgusting at the same time.

You know what it confused me then as it does today. Not that it had any lasting affect other than still not liking sprouts.
I've been racking my brains trying to think what her name was. Probably Karen (Although have have this weird memory she was called Josephine, a girl I dated in the 6th form yrs later. Didnt last long as even at that age it was apparent she was a bunny boiler)
