Interested in this. WTF is a 'Sussex Pasty' ? I decided against it, being a huge fan of the traditional Cornish, as it just didn't feel right.

I had one last night. Really liked it, but was like a proper Cornish pasty you would buy in Cornwall from a proper pasty shop, but in a pie.

What about Sussex Pond Pudding - full of suet and lemon. Gorgeous, but probably a heart attack waiting to happen.
 






Sussex Pie is something I was given once by an elderly relative, it contains game.

I asked her for the recipe and she refused, family secret and all that, took it to her grave although there are many available which I have attempted and never got close to hers.

The thought of Piglets Pantry fvcking that up abhors me.
 


Who remembers the shop near the station who used to sell tidioggies?

More Cornwall than Sussex, but a good stomach liner before strolling along the seafront in 1962 making smart-arese comments to girls and hoping to God they didn't respond.

Ah, the joys of being young in the 60's.

I feel old. Surely my son isn't 33 today? (Happy birthday Commander)

Except that Cornish pasties do not have peppered mince in them, or peas, gravy and carrots.

Something from my yoof.

Along with mods and rockers, brylcreem, girls with beehive hairdos, and footballers called Alf and Fred who used dubbin.

Under-wired bras, O'hagens Hotdogs, Divalls, a Beano from the pie shop, Electricity House,The Regent, Ice Skating, The Chicken Run and snow drifts above your head........Some things today's yoof don't have.

Ahhh, under wired bras, stick your hands up her roll neck jumper insert the tips of your fingers under the wire, push up and the titties flop down nicely into your palms. Have a good grope and a tweak, stick your tongue down her throat and return to your mates and light up a Players No 6. Happy days.
