peterhunter86 8,627 Posted September 3, 2018 Report Share Posted September 3, 2018 We didn't get school dinners over here, in primary school you got a disgusting corned beef or cheese sandwich or a current bun and a small carting of milk and in secondary school we went home for lunch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
