A bag of potato fritters.

It was my childhood trill to buy a bag and cover them in salt n vinegar. I used to suck the little chip bag afterwards, for the morish taste.

I also miss the 5 pence coins which was the cost of the fritters before they went up to 10 pence.

I definitely loved lucky bags!

I had a schoolboy job filling them. We were allowed to have a few sweets as we packed. I definitely ate too many sweets.
