Actually, no, good move! Newkie brown is vile. bleugh!

My very first job was at Newcastle Breweries in Bath Lane.
Staff perk was 24 dozen bottles or cans of whatever they traded per annum. Or a beer keg.
Trouble was I didn't drink so used to give it all away :scared:

Passed an Aldi today on way home (nearest Lidl was too far away) and found their equivalent @ £1.65, so bought two.
One's now in freezer t'other in fridge.

Deb Chemicals, Belper, Staff canteen - my first job in Derbyshire - and I weighed 7 stone 6 oz at the time.

Morning tea break every day:-

Starter - 1 thick slice of toast from local bakery with lots of butter
Main - 1 thick slice of toast from local bakery with beef dripping from local butcher*
Dessert - 1 thick slice of toast from local bakery with marmalade

* NB. had never tasted beef dripping before working at Deb :)

Lunchtime there was always choice of 2 puds, could never make mind up so always had both :tongue:

You wouldn't believe the evil eyes I used to get from the other women who worked there! :ninja:

Cottage cheese & Ryvita, anyone? :rolleyes2: :cry:

:lol-049::p

We had stotty cakes, a sort of round, flat bread 12 inches across cut into quarters.

Stottie cake - Wikipedia

Greggs used to make a lot of them, 90% of their 'sandwich' offerings were made with stotties a few years back.
A favourite filling was ham & pease pudding.

Since they went national Gregg's stotties are relegated to a just a few lone (unfilled) plain packs in amongst the ordinary bread :(

By the way, that Wiki entry is defamatory because they were NOT heavy & doughy! :p :)

Yeah, i've had stotties in the past, and while the ones i've had wern't heavy or doughy, they have more substance to them than your average breadcake. You feel as though you've had something substantial. The bread cakes I used to have were proper ones baked on the premises.
