Exiles Away - What do you take back after a visit home

[MackneyHackem]

Just run out of chop sauce, normally buy 5 bottles which last about a year.

Found it once in a Morrison’s in Stoke Newington. My Mam and dad do the same, five bottles to last a year.

This, loads of stotties for the freezer. And always get asked without fail 'do Gregg's not sell them down you'as like'

On this subject. My marra from Seaham drives car transporters, his sister in law works at greggs in Seaham. His workmate who lives in Bathgate, his wife works in greggs whitburn, (the west lothian whitburn). They swapped stuff from each branch to take home. Ham and pease pudding stotties came to Scotland, brides etc went south. Both branches were canny gobsmacked.

Same theme here, stotties, pease pudding, and if available Robinsons of Wingate Pork pies and pasties
Oh and the huge black pudding from Gibbons in sunniside £1.99.

My colleagues hate pease pudding- looked at me like I was an alien first time I brought it for bait

Usually a guilty conscience
