In the morning, at Primary, some big kids would bring in 2 tubs of wee milk cartons and we all had to drink it.

Every day that was

did you do that?

[arista]

Yes better days

[parmnion]

Yes, I hated milk back then so did not participate myself..they should bring this back.

[ThomasC]

We had cartons delivered. I used to love my milk.

[Alf]

Yes, and we used to get a dry biscuit with it. We had bottles not cartons.

[rusticgal]

Yes...we had bottles. It was always warm by the time we drunk it with a thick layer of cream on top...yuk.

[Alf]

We used to have a system called team points. Blue team, Red team, Yellow team and Green team. The members of the team who had won the most points at the end of the week each got a jelly baby.

[Niamh.]

We did but I hated milk, I only ever took one the odd time they'd have some strawberry milks in there.

Anyone remember Green custard on School dinners pudding?

[Alf]

I saw a tweet about School dinners puddings the other day. I'll see if I can find it.

[Alf]

Did you have any of these?

[Nicky91]

Nope


did have my good share of milk in my youth though at home


more recently i've switched from milk onto yoghurt drink (0% sugar) with my lunch

[AnnieK]

We had it delivered in little bottles with silver tops.....there was a bow with blue straws too.

The best thing was sometimes in the winter ot would have icicles on top lol

If someone was off we would have a rota to see if anyone wanted 2 bottles

Did you stab your straw through the foil bottle top or take the bottle top off?

My favourite was chocolate concrete pudding. It was rock hard but delicious.

2nds was a rush when it was cake and custard

The dinner ladies at my school were like little Hitlers. My mum nearly came to blows with the head one, Mrs Worthington because she used to make my brother eat right handed and he was a leftie. She didn't believe in left handed people and used to bollock him every day. She was scarey.....but so was my mum
