Yes Robbie, except that not many actually bring stuff in to sell, they're members to get the bulk prices.
I've heard of shark fin soup, but....Flipper pies! :-O There's something to tell folks!
I hope you don't cut the flippers off and throw the rest back like they do with sharks :rant: :rant: :rant:

Joe, hope you didn't have nightmares after that! :worried:

I like your line of thinking there, Eric. ;)
Nothing gets wasted Mike, although I have to admit I really don't like seal meat, tastes too fishy for my liking so I stick with moose and cod, I do smoke my own mackerel which gets shared around the village, up here everyone either gives or swaps, it's rare to have to pay money for anything.

Castrol R Keith ? Maybe that's the stuff I had to add to the petrol in my Vespa Scooter - a very necessary addition.
Cheers :cheers:

Hi Keith,
A well-loved aroma!
Apparently still available; this from their Australian site:
Castrol R 30

Contains specially selected additives to prevent rapid deterioration through oxidation.

Application

Castrol R 30 is are recommended for competition applications only.
It is a “one meeting” only lubricant, with fresh oil to be used at the commencement of each meeting and drained at completion.
Castrol R30 is not recommended for normal road use.


I remember one Christmas at my sister's place; BBQ going outside, and my brother and I said simultaneously "Castrol R!" It was olive oil dripping onto the burning charcoal.

I have been known to put a drop of olive oil in the motor mower fuel tank to try to replicate the smell.
I also bring back memories of visits to London Airport by burning a bit of kerosene, which reminds me of the jet exhaust.
Simple things for simple minds. :stupid:

Robbie, Thanks for that, I thought yours would be a real co-op!
Cheers, Mike.
