Ive just been on that site Dee, very interesting didnt know there was such a thing. You learn something new every day dont you, must ask my partner does he know what a spork is, as he things he knows everything. Regards Yvonne

I can buy party forks and plates as you describe here in my local supermarket in the USA - they arrived and never left!

Yvonne I married in 1970 and had them when I was newly married Have just googled Spork and come up with this site, which is quite amusing http://www.spork.org/

Crombie coats LOL everyone wore those. I use to go into the cloak room at school and change them all around on to different pegs LOL it was fun watching them all put the wrong ones on. never heard of sporks what year where they out? Regards Yvonne

Rosi I remember monkey boots - I had some! Wore them with my denim waistcoat and jeans and a denim dress/coat - thought I looked great! I also had the 'pixie cut' which was almost a skinhead style wise! Even more chuffed when I had an Harrington jacket, a Crombie and Ben Sherman shirts! Those were the days..... Debby

But Dee, If you are from Herts, you would have been a little more yuppyfied than I was. I'm from Hackney. Suex

Yes I remember them, at my age they could have been ANY time. I don't remember when, just that they were! Deanna X

By the way we still use our Sporks, they are great for eating curry Dee xx

Sue I must have been a Yuppy before the word was invented. Dee ;-))

Monkey boots Jumping Jacks Does anyone also remember these............

Paul I am not that old!!!!! I had some when I was first married and we used to entertain Dee xx

Yes Dee, I remember sporks and those funny plate things. I never had any, just those friends who thought they were a bit upmarket. No offence meant to anyone who has them!!! Suex

sound like 60's things to me... before my time lol

Sporks? Talk earlier of when forks were first used got me thinking of Sporks They were a kind of fork/spoon invented no doubt for buffets. Remember the days of a tray that you could put a plate and glass on and hold in one hand, and then eat using your spork? Sorry, I can see you are all looking at me as though I have lost the plot Dee ;-))
