Let's go the "whole hog" and have a three course meal from yesteryear

Prawn Cocktail (Soup in a basket is off)
Smorgasbord(Fill in your own details)
Black Forest Gateau(Compulsory)

Washed down with copious quantities of Blue Nun
Background music : "Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away,now I need a place to hide away.........."

Just seen the Breakfast programme on BBC1.

Sadly Kenny Rogers has died. However the Coronavirus overload was interspersed by that news AND some of his wonderful songs were played. First time I've heard any other news for days - which shows how popular he was. Loved listening to his songs.
Places of interest;

When Peter Kay hopefully returns, I wonder what he will make of the current situation --- I can imagine him having an audience in stitches about some of the 'carryings on' at this time.
