School dinners...

What did you like---dislike about them?

I always loved the fish and also the salads in the summer. I remember the salads being made from (cold) baked beans, peas, cubed beetroots and lettuce, etc. The semolina where we mixed in the jam to make it a pink slush and being told off by the dinner ladies. The lemon meringue which we told them tasted like sick...Yahhkkkkk...They didn't like that at all. I remember the dinner van rolling up full of large tin trays and pots like in the photo...some hot and some cold.

I always thought the dinners were good but a lot of folk disagree. Hmmm...!!

I enjoyed them Fred as well..just the usual tapioca repulsed me,but overall I had no problems at all with school dinners,it was just school I hated.

Hi Mo,

I also disliked school and was always ready to get out to work.

I did alright and with no regrets....xx
