Bolting our meals down so we could run back to the dinner line and get "Seconds" we were poor little fuckers 

Yup,i remember the pop man and the bread van,and the rag and bone man and the dodgy video man with porn vids on VHS in the boot of his car 

Used to sell my free school meal ticket and play pitch and toss to get more money to buy some better food down the village ......

 The dinners were sort of so, so. cabbage,   yuck, disgusting. Swede, yuck. Some meat was ok some was boot leather. The puddings were nice. Semolina with strawberry jam. Sago/ tapioca. Jam tart and custard. The Apple pie was spoilt by cloves like nails in it. So hot. There was the stigma of thowe that got free school dinners but no one seemed to care about it. When I went to the next school I  didn't like school dinners and took sandwiches.  Those that had sandwiches ate them in a classroom and as soon as  finnished you could leave the room and get out  playing football or go in the gym.

My mate tommy's mam died when he was young,he was brought up by a father who didn't have much time for him or his sister,both were a little wild due to the lack of adequate parenting,he was an incredible shoplifter,had a rip inside his blazer into which he slipped everything but the kitchen sink,we did a runner once out of woolworths when it was in pennywell,he was caught and got the cane at school :cray:I heard years later through the grapevine he was still in sunderland and had become an alcoholic.

Liver and bacon casserole with cabbage and boiled spuds.

Stuffed hearts with mash and carrots.

Ham salad with rice and peas, manky lettuce and half a tomato.

Greasy chips!

I loved jam roly poly and custard, chocolate sponge with brown custard.

Third of a pint milk bottles, freezing in winter when the blue tits pecked the caps off to steal the cream. Warm and sour in the summer when it had been left in the sun. 

Those were the days!

You go to fecking Eton?.?

Used to love school dinners.  Was always good food in my school.  Some days I'd waste it before dinner but usually always had enough for a good feed dinner time . Did used to plough through it tho so I could get out and play football . Remember once some boys distracted the vegetarian kid while others pushed chicken in his sandwich . He went absolutely mental when he spotted chicken in there .
