No - I don't remember that.
But I do remember a friend serving up baked beans encased in sausage
meat (like a Scotch egg but with beans). They were packaged and probably
came from the deep freezer at Iceland. Incredibly disgusting they were,
too.

I remember seeing the product on the supermarket shelves, but I wouldn't
dignify it with the description "breakfast-in-a-tin".

No, not that one. I've seen that with bits of torn omlette. Yuk!
I want the original London Girll and I want it yesterday.

Google is your friend.

Dear friend, that didn't help. None of the links actually feature
London Girll, not even the Heinz one.
Good luck!

I had a sense of deja vu about this . . . you're still looking after two
years? Is there something about this time of year that makes you fancy a
can?

Hallo, we're doing a 70's night at home, hence the requirement for
faggots, London Grill, Angel Delight and those Vesta meals. Plus, if
only I could get Double Diamond beer, that would be a big help,
otherwise Harp will do.
Good luck!

Angel D. and Vesta meals are still available in my local Tesco.
But why not go upmarket with prawn cocktail in a scooped-out avocado,
and black forest gateau or Arctic Roll for puds?

Don't mention peas to me - I worked on the A1 (catering size) pea line
at Goldhangar Fruit Farms, Essex, one summer. The toughest job (mine)
was scooping garden peas with a plastic bucket onto the line from a
large trough on wheels. Almost as much of my sweat as juice went into
those tins.
Later that summer, in the Cadbury Schweppes canning factory in Montrose,
I worked on the mushy pea line.

Ahhh the 'bean rounda'. You used to get them in certain chippies round
scotland...but I haven't seen one for a while.

I'm sure it does, but not the way most restaurants serve it.
In my long service as a belly on feet I've never encountered one where
the prawns were not obviously tinned or frozen, and served with a sauce
that was going over the top in the taste department in a vague attempt
to make you forget neither of the other two ingredients (i.e. the prawns
and the damn avocado) were identifiable.
One day I'll just have to make it myself.

Don't Les Frères De Frein offer saucy mare in sous-vide ;-?
