My mum snatched a bag of golden wonder smoky bacon off meAm I the only one who never got the distinction for us catholic kids between eschewing meat on Friday's but chewing fish instead. surely god created the animals in the sea as well as on land. Fish is just sea-meat!
Me and fish have an uneasy relationship all stemming from the school dinners served up to me in my primary school from the mid fifties. Friday was no meat day, cheese pie or fish. When I say fish, to this day I maintain the fish content was like those cartoon depictions after the cat has feasted and where there is only the head and the tail remaining joined together by the bony skeleton. The fish served with boiled potatoes and pease pudding. I hated it and you for a thick ear off Ma Bailey the head dinner lady if you didn't finish it.…..fish on a normal Friday is still a thing; Fish Friday. I have fish every Friday for evening meal.
I think Good Friday is more about the religious aspect of not eating meat. Mrs Eggs is a RC, today I had fresh salmon for lunch and will be having fresh cod for tea.

Hope you sent him off before the game was abandoned @Eggs…..remember a staff v pupil game and because I was at LFC they wouldn’t let me play but asked me to referee. One of the teachers slid into a tackle and broke the leg of one of the pupils, remember it well to this day. Match abandoned, just wonder if there’d be law suits these days.

Hope you sent him off before the game was abandoned @Eggs![]()
