Where are you going for your weekly joint??
Can't you make up your mind? St Ann’s Well Road with all of its Butchers Shop queues you'll always find There was Osborne’s, Carnell’s, and Eddie Smith's Kingstones, Pilkington’s, Sales and Scrimshaw’s Mr Mason was closest to us I wonder? Which one was yours? Howards then Bramley’s.....pork dripping to die for Windows full, and the fridge held more Sharps, Martins, and Streckers. Whitworths, Dewhurst and Gunns Kids noses at the windows, out shopping with their mums, Sausages hanging, black pudding and tripe An array of meats? What would you like? It was put on the slice,r weighed on the scales All first class Butchers ..None of them fails Then Sunday morning.....mam said to dad........”Ernie… Breakfast is finished, the meat can go in the oven on low And while you're following the Band, I’ll cook the dinner slow Be back early if you can If you go to the Havelock, I’ll steam yours on a pan” We were always going to be on to a winner The Aromas and taste of our mams Sunday Dinner Webmaster: Mavis Baker (co-admin of St Ann's Well Road Pre-Demolition (1970) Online Community)
