Happy New Year guys....
Silverskins they were called, you can still get them. Hayward’s do them.You never see them anymore, pickled onions that were about 1cm in diameter.
Do they still do the ship sirens? When i was a lad in Berwick Hills and the dock by the Riverside Stadium was still in use, the signal for us going first footing was the wail of the ships sirens. That was when people started knocking on doors.Just to be different I sparked up the BBQ for the 2 of us. Watched Whitechapel followed a pre planned midnight doorstep meet of the neighbors to see the New Year in, could not hear the Docks for the firework display going on.
