I'm sure when i was a student living in Moston, north of Manchester, when we bought fish n chips from the local chippy, they always asked if we wanted gravy on it!!!!
My mum made me a junket for a treat when I was little. I was so disappointed - I have never eaten anyhing so slimy and horrid. That and tapioca, still my no-nos, shades of school dinners (most of which were quite good in them there days).
