I would always rather have dry bread!<br /><br />Ice cream blocks - remember the one with the green layer?

It would be brought home, wrapped in newspaper and put at the base of the front door (where the draft was). Somehow mum seemed able to time Sunday lunch round the icecream man's arrival and we had icream that was at that lovely just melted stage with tinned pineapple cubes.......... sigh........menopausalmusinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255069917743230560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8630924445657816001.post-41070242383814470672010-06-19T08:08:01.914+01:002010-06-19T08:08:01.914+01:00Oooh.
