    An 8 kg turkey won’t fit into a .8 cubit foot microwave. So far, in forty five years of cooking turkeys twice a year, I haven’t forgotten to take it out well in advance to thaw in the fridge.

    People complained even back then. Gas may have been a lot cheaper, but cars weren’t nearly so fuel efficient as they are today. Some of the larger American models only got around ten miles to the gallon or less, especially if they had a V8 engine. I can remember Dad complaining bitterly about the mileage. He started switching to smaller cars in the 1970s when gas prices shot up due to the various oil embargoes

    Andrew would be King now if Charles had given up his place in the line of succession. I think I prefer Charles.

    That depends on where you live. Here in Canada most sugar (over 90%) is cane sugar. We do produce some sugar beets, but I think much of that production probably goes into the commercial sector. The sugar you see in the supermarkets is all labelled “pure cane sugar”.

    That’s a brick building next door. Could be an apartment building. People from several floors up used to hang their laundry by running a line to either a pole or another building. Plenty of photos of this on line.

    Classes used to be much bigger years ago, even in the early grades. I started school in 1961 and class sizes of 38 – 40 weren’t at all unusual. Now, where I live, the early grades are capped at 23.

    I won’t go to airshows anymore. I’ve seen two crashes, both at the Toronto International Air Show. One of them was when a British plane, an old RAF Nimrod, crashed into the lake in 1995, killing all seven crew members. The other was in 1989 when two planes from the Snowbirds aerobatic team collided in mid-air. One pilot was killed, the other ejected safely.
