haha this reminds me of my sister, who was very very excited to show me her knew purchase ( in the kitchen I hasten to add) an AMERICAN FRIDGE! I of course to begin with did not know what the excitement was all about, until my SIL nudged me and whispered in my ear The Fridge.
Yes the regular ones are so small, eggs in the fridge in my house and salad cream but not ketchup.

Rodney, I found in England nobody keeps eggs, sauces or salad cream in the fridge, I suppose they don't have to as the weather doesn't get as hot as we are used to. That's how my family know I am around as all of the above get put in the fridge plus jam, etc. as I go on auto pilot after 30 years living here.

Have you noticed how small the fridges are? :eek:

So here is my question. If we had used another group would they have taken offense? Meaning, knock out the word 'Welshman' and use another group and I think people would jump on you really fast but we Welshmen can take it, right?

Cheers

Your right about that, the not parting with old food. My Nana (and Dh's grandma both) used to feed us out of the larder when we were little (think 60's and 70's) they were war rations, in cans we didn't know what some of it was till it was opened, no labels :lol:
