Wlad's chin looks like mine too.

No it isn't, it reaches the bridge of Wlad's nose, you obviously overestimate the size of his spam.

It reaches the eyesbrows from the looks of it because his eyes are at the tip of Wlad's nose.

What do ya mean by spam?

I'm guessing he means forehead.

Anyone on here old enough to remember what 'Spam' meant at school?

you should know spamhead.

Reckon you mean head then. :P

More specifically the Forehead.

Spamhead was the general term when regaling someone who had been blessed with a larger than average dome to their cranium.

"Tefal" was another, due to a Tefal ad where there were Boffins with enormous forehead's, or spams.

Fiji was another less known one, after an ad where this melon starts growing longer....

Spam-head
Tefal
Fiji-head

Ahhh, days of my youth. :(

God bless our noble education system, the envy of the world.

I'm still in my youth since I'm only 19.

The food spam rocks though. 8)

spam head slap head, event he more adventerous french "le maxi tete"
were used at others in my youth.

There was a kid at my school called Johnathan Murphy who had a massive head. I had the idea after french class that we could borrow a bit of our froggie friends language and coined the name..

"Ouefy Murphy"

The best ever though was poor old Paul Bowe who was small and wizened who had the nickname.

"Embrybowe"

It's a cruel world out there.

What was school dinners like back then?

not bad as it goes as my next door neighbour was a dinner lady.

Was their any spam?

NOT THAT I RECALL

Aww I like spam too.

Memmmreeeees... like the corners of my mind....


Was the cry of SPAM usually swiftly followed with a open hand slap on the forehead. Or did i just go to a particularly rough school?

Nah, it was the done thing at my school as well. What laughs.....

We used to get inordinately greasy spam fritters, they literally oozed grease. I was forced to eat one by Peggy Igoe (the slops lady) when I had a bad stomach, and I vomited copiously in the dinner hall, causing a stir and the timely arrival of the bucket of sawdust.

As an interesting aside, I once caught Peggy Igoe making a sandwich with the slops from the basin, which included mashed potato, custard, peas, bits of burger and jam-rolly polly. She was a disgusting lady.

Yes, the swiftly administered forehead slap usually followed a cry of 'SPAM.'

I would send you some spam Max but most good email providers block it these days

I found a Spam puzzle on Ebay for you though

Nevermind Spam, bring back Milk in schools:



It was a northern staple, I was shocked to learn it was off the menu when I moved down south...... My 'breaktime's' were never the same!!
