    I loved my school dinners, syrup sponge, spotted !!!!!!, bakewell tart
    all with custard, chocolate sponge with pink custard.
    i used to be majorly disappointed (although still eat it) when there was rice pudding or semolina with a dollop of jam. Still cant bring myself all these years later to eat tapioca - yuk
    Never saw a chip all the years i was at school

    good luck in your new job.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
