Every morning we were packed off to school with a victory V and were most welcomed on "pea souper" or icy and snowy mornings. Thanks for reminding me Oldtimer. :)

The Subject reminds me of an old "Searchers" song from the Sixties.
Sweets for my Sweet Suger for my Honey?

We didn’t have sweets when I was a kid, whether they were still a rarity due to rationing, or we just couldn’t afford them, I don’t know, so my mum used to put a bit coco powder and sugar into a bag, we’d stick our fingers in and lick off the sweet mix.
Happy memories, must have a go at this again sometime, soon. ::)

I made a bread pudding yesterday, a loaf of bread which I bought last weekend and neither of us had any, it became rather stale so I looked in the larder and sure enough I had all the ingredients, Roy is a happy chappy now with a big smile on his face,  ;D  I have frozen some of it in portions and we can have it from time to time.  I must admit when its cooking it smells divine! ;D
