A bag of small potatoes after Friday practice, roasted on the horse-drawn cart outside Blackburn Cathedral Choristers School back in the day. Salt was obtained by licking said potatoes and dipping it in the communal tub of salt. It's a wonder I am still alive!

He also sometimes had parched peas which is a bit of a Lancashire tradition around Easter.

I haven’t had good beef dripping for years. My mum used to drain the tin after roasting beef & we would have bread & dripping the following day.
