Excellent stuff, Robbo

Wonder how many of the Health foods would still be considered that now

Robbo, I'm so glad you posted all these after tea-time. It's still making my tummy rumble a bit. Hmmm... so many goodies to choose from. They could've sprung straight from the pages of one of Mrs Beeton's cookbooks.

ASSORTED SCONES....[a choice from]
Sultana, Lemon, Currant, Wholemeal, Soda and Potatoe!


I also liked:

"Pre War Strength Scotch Whiskey"

"Hayward's Military Pickles"

"Potatoe scraping gloves"



Well done Robbo, great stuff.

I hated the smell of coffee from Coopers !, my Mum loved it though, from the time when I was really young I have hated and still do the smell of coffee, I,m sure it was because of Coopers.....loved the cheesey smell though....
Once again what a crime this lovely old building was torn down for modern concrete "blocks" !
