General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

My Mam, God Bless her, grew up eating dripping butties, ( yet she never weighed more than 6 1/2 stones in all her life, apart from being pregnant). People didn't have much choice in those days, when most everybody was poor you ate whatever you could afford to...

Thankfully, I never had to eat them, I loved chips fried in them, but to spread it on a piece of bread to eat, I'd have choked before it even got to my mouth..
