Am I Right In Noticing?

[Margaret Pilkington]

Oh No Retlaw...that is one I have tried and didn't like it...the texture is too dense for me...and when you toast it it is like cardboard....I know...I'm just too fussy.
I don't eat much bread anyway, so what I do eat...well, I want it to be right.

At present the birds/ducks/hens are getting well fed.......I buy a loaf and find out it isn't to my taste, so it goes in the bag for the birds/hens.

Try Oddies in the Arndale Margaret, they will slice it for you get it sliced thick. Lovely bread

Please don't feed ducks bread it is not good for them.

I know Neil......lot's of people do feed them bread(on the canal).....I think he gulls eat most of it.

I get Oddies bread f or Ma, but their slicing machine doesn't really do thick...when you ask for 'thick'...one half is sandwich sliced and the other is (maybe) medium.

At the moment I'm a bit like a sulky kid who can't get their own way...nothing suits me.
I may give up on bread.

You went down like billy-o after that.
Many a ripped pair of school pants to explain away not to mention the gravel rash on your you know what.

Exactly the first thing I thought of there Mr. D but the swings were over White Ash in my case.

As opposed to gravel rash up King Georges it truly was "ash rash" on the White Ash/Moor End feilds. Must have been an old slag heap at one time with about 10 cm ( half an inch in old money) of turf on top.
Ist year of Accy Tech used to be billeted up there back in the day.

Yes that's the feller... first comb over I ever saw ....long before Mrs Charltons lad.
Used to see him in the Accy library over the years always had a word or two.
Saw his obit in the Observer a couple of years ago.

Ya I'm nearly sure it was a tip Mr. D Shopfitters used the playing fields for home matches, after working Saturday morning a few of us went over to walk the pitch to make sure no broken glass had come to the surface, some days we'd end up with half a bucket full.

I did until recently.
Now I eat so little of it, I don't make the effort.
I buy additive free bread (expensively)

Muqpauraq is good too ... though it heads straight for the waist and the butt ... best cooked over an open fire out in the bush
