I remember the crispy scraps Lynda. We used to call it crackling. Had to have loads of vinegar on it though.

When the fair came to town we used to get a1p bag of black peas or roast spuds, (although they were full of eyes,) and we got a meat pie on a tray with soup off the mushy peas, mmmmm

there used to be a "shop" in the maket, where you had a meal of faggots, peas, and gravy for 6d
