Swales of Clitheroe


( Beware - Larger than usual image if you click.)

The memories come flooding back. No, not of Clitheroe I hav never even been there or suffered from an attack of Clitheroes. I mean the ice cream van, and especially its stock.

  • Ice cream, obviously, including cones and sliders (wafers to you)
  • Old-Style Pepsi tins. I bet they preceded ring-pulls.
  • Beef and Onion Golden Wonder crisps.
  • Cigarettes. Yes, Capstan and Embassy fags. You don't see that nowadays... ;o)

Bonus - Heinz Automato 4 When Engineers have too many toys...

Hy, that brought back memories. The Gorbals, 1983, and the white stuff wasn't ice cream.
