End of our travellling

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

No! The difference is just what is stamped on the plate. That's all.
Just released to meet different markets.

Any idea what year that ad is from? I wonder how many gullible people were sucked in? Or maybe it was an Aprils Fool day gag, like the old Channel 7 spaghetti tree from the 60's.

Or the fishing lure that you simply dialed in what sort of fish you wanted to catch?

Got two of them, even comes with a visual display window so not only the sort of fish, but size and visual appeal ...... Both "Visa" brand and work fine where ever good fish are available 8-) (* lure refill not available with this product, but instructions on how to refill the lure can be found on line)

David,
The “Spaghetti Harvest” April Fools Day piece was a BBC thing. Can’t remember what year, but it was sometime in the 60s. Absolutely brilliant! I think it’s still available on YouTube.
Ch7 just re-ran it in a news bulletin. As did many TV channels.
Regards & God bless,
Ray
