Fs that just gave me a flashback to about 6 years old , we had a cat ' sooty " cos it was jet black ( and mustve iwent up chimneys
) . I mind that the cats box was a rectangle wash basin tub with newspapers at the bottom. Even worse often my wee sister and I would get sent out with poly bags and wee hand shovels to the fitba' pitches to collect the top gravel for the cats box haha
. My wee ma god rest her she could make a fiver between 5 siblings and 2 adults last longer than you could possibly imagine , at the end of the day she had to by the time my da got got hame hed 7/10 times be steaming and skint hand over a few tenners to see us all through the week . Does anyone else remember getting a tea spoon of cod's liver oil as a waen? This was before you had a choice of 300 different vitamins. Fish oil so it has every vitamin you could need practically. It was disgusting , the first time I ever had it, about a week before ma had gave us all a teaspoon of golden syrup out of a big tin ( probably a wee tin but i was a waen everything was big) and also a teaspoon of Treacle on a different day . When I think back it was a sweetie treat for 5 waens that wouldnt be possible to do otherwise. So I thought I was getting a teaspoon of Treacle and it was cold liver oil , what a shock that was put me off cod liver oil until the capsules came out. Golden syrup and Treacle? Haven't seen then for years probably still get it for bakery. A wee flashback there anybody else get similar?
