I was brought up on 'camp' pie. Nothing wrong with itiyt!?% Now, about 'bully beef'. That's an entirely diff. story. When I was a lad, way back when, we only had bully beef 1 day a week, & we didn't have a tin opener.. Had to chew thru the tin to get our breakfast. Ad infinitem......... L.

Camp Pie came in a tin can too, but it was a sloppy version of Spam. It was sort of liquified and full of that jelly muck! It stayed in your system for about 1 hour if you were lucky!!

It had no taste and was a pale pinky-white colour. Yum Yum lovely

Bully Beef, or Corned beef, used to come in the same shaped can as Spam, it had lots of fat and in the two world wars the British and Commonweath Armies used to live on it. When I was in England in the early seventies thy found a few hundred tons of the stuff left over from the war, and they where going to put it on the supermarket shelves, but there was such a stink that they shelved the idea and gave it to some other country as aid. astroron

Dear IceInSpace members,

I must say I am most disappointed. You led me to believe you were genuinely interested in helping me, but it appears that none of you understand the seriousness of my situation. Please forgive me if your lack of response is due to any miscommuminication on my part and please PM me with all your VISA/Mastercard details so I can transfer the $26,000,000 and deposit your fee of $9,100,000. Thank you,

Professor Stefan Rippemov

PS. Ken Dragon, Sir. How much do you want for that Harbour Bridge?

When I was in Canada a few years back, one night the girlfriends mother served up
what they called hot meat sandwich. Which was stew poured over slices of bread.
Which imediately turned into slop... which sounds similar to "CampPie" Ken is talking
about, and had me spamming in the toilet not long after.

Sorry Mrs Metzel... but that was putrid!!!

regards,CS
