My great aunt who ran a Bispham boarding house (1940s) served no other type of bread - she had a bread slicer the size of a bacon slicer - guests must have eaten lots of it, but food was rationed then.

It certainly does exist and I buy it occasionally. My daughter loves it and says it reminds her of her Nan (my mum) who always bought it when ever she went to stay with Mum and Dad as a child. She still calls it Blackpool Milk Roll because my mother did.

It is still shown as in production on the Warburtons website - looked for a pic but there wasn't one

Thanks West Ender, as I said I don't do much shopping these days, but will put one on my list this weekend, round sarnies again
