I'm sure many of you will remember this celebrated institution, but can you remember what was actually on it? For those who don't, it was a tea trolley that was pushed and pulled around around the pitch perimeter and young lads would dispense a range of scaldingly hot beverages into plastic Maxpax cups and a small range of snacks.
This came up in the line of research but we've come unstuck. While I definitely remember Wagon Wheels from a time when virtually nobody else sold them and chewing gum in the kind of blisterfoil that tablets come in, there were also crisps, but what kind?
I though maybe Smax or fish & chip flavour snacks, someone else thought Seabrook and yet again, someone thought XL, so we've drawn a bit of a blank on this one!
Any ideas?
