It’s a pub on A6 in Stockport, great place.

So good a band is named after it

Smiths crisps, loves that brand as a kid. Golden wonder cheese and onion crisps. Came across them a couple of years ago. Bought a pack and they tasted bloody awful.

Anyone remember Tudor Crisps?

remember collecting packets to send off for the 'Munch Olympics' medals - big plastic badges with Henry VIII on them

1972 - how old am I FFS?

The factory had a weird kind of smell.
Beautiful from the outside.

I made the train journey going past so many times over the years, I used to love it when the train came to a halt at the back of McVities, used to see loads of people open the windows and sniff up, that smell was amazing (but obviously only from the outside).

They used to have Geordie voice overs right ? “Canny bag o Tudor man” ?

Used to play gigs at a pub on the A6 called The Spectrum.
Back in the 70s

My paternal grandmother’s hot Vimtos deserve a special mention - although I excluded them from the above because they weren’t on sale at the shop.

The shops near my primary school sold hot vimto in polystyrene cups during the winter mornings in the early 90s. Would get dropped off a couple of hundred metres away from school so mum didn't have to join the east lancs, was given 20p for a hot vimto on my way in to school with my brother and nextdoor neighbour

Tater 'ash comes to mind with a random lumpy crust 'o pastry on the top was probably my Mum's signature dish, .
