Pizzas and stuff.

Aunty Freda

The Hawaiian

This is the "most popular" flavour of them all, and also the simplest to make. Here’s what you’ll need.
  • Pizza base, pre-treated as before.
  • ¼ cup Rageletto Primavera sauce, ¼ cup Uncle Ben’s Hawaiian sweet & sour sauce. Mix together.
  • 1 x 440gram can Bilo (tastes sweeter) pineapple pieces.
  • 1 cup diced bacon.
  • Perfect Italiano Pizza Plus cheese, White pepper.


Spread the sauce over the base, then add a small amount of cheese. Add the diced bacon. Don’t use ham, sliced bacon has much more flavour. Spread the pineapple evenly over the top of the bacon, then cover the lot with cheese, though not too much. Remember, cheese is an insulator.

Dust the lot with white (not black) pepper.

Pop the lot into a pre-heated oven (2000C) and when the cheese has melted, and starts to brown, (about 10-12 mins) remove from oven, slice and enjoy.

Farewell

Early in November last year, the C130E’s of 37Sqn flew their last mission for the RAAF, having been replaced by the more modern J model. First delivered to Richmond in August 1966, those wonderful old machines have flown a total of 307,000 hours without a prang-which is an average of 2 hours for every aircraft for every day the RAAF’s had them-that’s one helluva record.

The December edition of the RAAF News covered the delivery of A97-160 to the RAAF museum at Pt Cook, but also showed a photo of 159 at a ceremony at Richmond held to mark the occasion. Hanging out the pilot’s window of ‘59 was a familiar face-that of Bob Pearman. Blokes and Blokettes who were at Richmond in the late 60’s will remember Bob who at that time was the head barman at the Airman’s boozer.

Back then he was a Cpl, and he’d do a 1 week shift every three weeks. He was always "on for a yarn", loved to "have one with ya", was known to "leap the bar" on more than one occasion in order to quell the odd riot and over time he became a bit of an institution. He was eventually Sergeantized, and had to go, but it’s good to see he’s still fit and well, and from the look of things, he’s still enjoying life.
