"Tizer, cheddar cheese on toast, scrambled eggs, bubble-and-squeak, tinned sardines"
I still eat most of those, though I have sardines less often as they seem to 'hang around'. We had tinned pilchards regularly as well, and fish paste, 'luncheon meat', tinned peaches and tinned pineapple.
However, Tizer is now horrible. They have obviously changed the recipe.
Remembering these reminds me of time spent in a student hostel in the 1960s in Barcelona. One day one of the Spanish students said he had a special treat - something English he had come across in a shop, called 'esseleethedd peenay applay' - it took us a little time to work out what it was.
