A moment of nostalgia for us 30+ Expats..
sing along:
Will it be chips or jacket spuds?
will it be salad or frozen peas
will it be mushrooms?
fried onion rings?
you'll have to wait and see
Hope it's chips, it's chips
we hope it's chips, it's chips!
Will it be chips or jacket spuds?
will it be salad or frozen peas
will it be mushrooms?
fried onion rings?
you'll have to wait and see
Hope it's chips, it's chips
we hope it's chips, it's chips!
