PopT Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I remember Mrs Taylor on Grant Road in Owlerton. She baked large oven bottom cakes and used to put them on a cloth to cool down on the kitchen window sill. The smell of those freshly cooked cakes brought all the kids off the street waiting for her to cut one up and put some dripping on it. The dripping used to melt nto the holes in the Oven cake slice with the heat and we would devour one of those slices in seconds. G-d Bless her, I wonder if she is still baking up there and laughing at us reminiscing. Happy Days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janner Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 When I was at the Central Tech. we used to buy bread & dripping from a little shop behind the Cathedral. One day the Headmaster, at morning assembly, gave us all a blast, "" I will not have pupils from this school ,walking around, in public, eating doorsteps".

PopT Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Typical Wadgie lecture, Janner. I remember him also objecting to pupils eating 'sweetmeats' on the school premises. I don't know which planet he came from but he was high above 'us wee mortals' almost speaking a different language. Happy Days though.

saxon51 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Caviar, pheasant, oysters? No chance. Doorstep granary bread with dripping and salt everytime. Four slices. Plenty of brown 'jelly'. I've just orgasmed:blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
