Final one about my ex-stepfather
Whenever we had anything with baked beans, I wasn't allowed tomato ketchup "as there's loads of tomato sauce on the beans".

I didn't really like the sauce, and it certainly wasn't as nice on my chips as a drop of Heinz' finest... so I used to have brown sauce on them instead.

My little brother though (who was in fact my stepfather's REAL son) was allowed ketchup, because he didn't like brown sauce and it wasn't fair that I could have sauce on my chips and he couldn't.

Length? Quarter of a fucking century ago and that one still fills me with the same impotent frustrated disbelief it did then...

Serves you right for wanting ketchup.
What are you, a fucking septic? Everyone knows a proper Englishman settles for nothing less than HP.

Pshaw.
Of course you can't have ketchup with baked beans. Are you mad?

Pfft. Youth of today. Back to Russia, etc.

That is a massive ROGER, it does make the beans taste better with a bit of ketchup. "It's already on there" my arse. Who honestly thinks the two taste the same? Thats what my mum used to say to me but the sauce on the beans is just inadequate without some of the red stuff
