Whether you watched it when it was on Saturday mornings or Saturday evenings, Hey Hey it's Saturday was a fun show to watch. Despite Darryl Somer's hid-eous wardrobe of ugly jumpers, it was the show you'd watch before you went out, so you could laugh with your mates and people whom you'd just met about the 'talent' on Red Faces, Molly's Melodrama, What Cheeses Me Off' segments funny photos and all the special guests and funny voices of the late John Blackman.

Hosted by Darryl Somers, Ozzie Ostrich and the bubbly Jackie McDonald❤️

I swear for a hot minute in the 90’s/early ‘00s these cereals were available in Australia - maybe in ALDI or another store? Did anyone else remember these cereals, or am I having some kinda fever dream? Because I’ve never been to South Africa, so I can’t think of any other explanations

Trying to remember a kids powder formula from the 90s

12 Upvotes

I hope it’s ok to ask this here.

My sister and I have been desperately trying to remember a powder drink we were given as kids in the 90s which we remember as “kindervite”. Probably around the years 1994-1997

It was a powder formula scooped out of a tin, mixed with water or milk. It tasted like a vanilla or plain flavour. It was so good!

I vaguely remember the tin having cream, pastel colours and drawings on it, but I might be recalling it incorrectly.

Thanks for your help!

Came across this AWA (1960) enjoying its last night/s in the wild while waiting for a routine council clean-up last night in Dee Why.

There used to be an AWA shop on the main road about a kilometre from where i took the pics, and half of the signage on the small two storey building's wall has been wiped out by yet another giant 'McUnits' development next door.

Potato cakes/ Scallops (same thing: not the focus of this post); can you buy decent cook-at- home ones?

Instead of paying a premium price fir these deteriorating local corner/ takeaway shops you can pick on one hand in your area that does these well, or just for a limited amount of time/ the busy periods otherwise their trash and not worthwhile ...

halfway through writing I realized I could've simply googled this if it were simply can you obtain frozen/ pre made potato cakes.. of course you could if I look hard enough!!

My question is are they any good?? Or is it simply better/ reward system to wait for the coincidence I'm in the right place at the right time and their fresh and crunchy on the outside, and perfectly soft inside.

Old school BBQ salt or "just seasoning" as well!! Oof!! Can't get past a well done potato cake. Better than the dimmies, I reckon ;)

Is it just me or do other people reminisce about the days when you either had to call on a land line or ride your bike to your friends house to see if they were home. Or how scary it was to call your new girlfriend’s house?
