    I must have been lucky - the custard we had at school was luuuuverley. No lumps, no skin. Just lots of golden runny, frothy deliciousness.

    I thought they just added food colouring!

    My Nan used to make a white sauce, add sugar and colouring if she didn't have eggs, but I guess that's effectively what Birds custard is anyway?

    Add cresta milkshake syrup to cornflour and milk. Boil its up....yummy tubbycustard (used to make it for my kids and they loved teletubbies) or pink custard to you and me!!!
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
