Recommended Posts

What were those buns called that were puff pastry filled with apple and cream and covered with sugar?

 

Cream Slices used to have one every Saturday morning.

elephants feet with the synthetic cream, vanilla slices mmmmmmmm

the coffee cakes that had coffee written on top in brown swirly icing were nice too and only had them occasionally for special occasions

 

thick bread was blue, medium was green and thin was yellow

loved the thick, was always so white and soft

Lived at Frecheville and opur Fletchers man was called Brian. He had en Elvis Quiff. He used to ;park up on our road and have a dinner break for at least 30 mins in someones house whose husband worked away.

Probably used to take her a cream horn in at the same time.

The rhyme went...

Don't Eat Fletchers Bread,

It makes you s**t like lead,

Don't eat Fletchers, don't eat Fletchers, Dont eat Fletchers bread.

 

 

I can't imagine that it did much to help the Fletchers sales figures!
