crumpets toasted on the fire Sunday afternoons watching Errol sodding Flynn

 remember peaches in carnation milk or Fussells cream as  a treat would hate it now - we always  had a dinnr then a light tea on sundays - no shops open AT ALL - bliddy boring

Hated carnation or fussells

I didn't then but I would now - Fussells was a right treat
