Tasty childhood treats

When I was little (a long time ago), my mum made me a couple of yummy things to eat that I sometimes think about.

One as what she called "pobs". When I'd had teeth out, and my blood-soaked little mouth couldn't eat solids, she made me a bowl of warm, sugary milk with lumps of a white loaf in it. Delicious. Worth having teeth out for.

Another was a ripe banana, crushed with a fork and sugared, with the top of the milk on it (in the days when the milk had a creamy top, long before the days of semi-skimmed).

No wonder all my teeth have fallen out. But ........simple pleasures.. nowt wrong with that.

I remember having banana and milk sprinkled with sugar but it was sliced banana. Lovely. Also Farley rusks with milk and sugar

I admit that when you reach a certain age, all you have left is distant memories. Not many more years to go now.

Mead and oats for me ;)

Daz drops ...I used to gamble all my bus fare money on odds and evens in the playground just to maintain my fix. They were narcotic in their generic make up and after eating a full pound bag I would just stand motionless like a spice head and not move.

Ditto on the pobs! Especially after the dentist. And occasionally a spoonful of condensed milk out of a tin.

Thanks for that. At least I haven't imagined "pobs"..
