We
were just kids growing up in the Glasgow tenements in the sixties. my two pals and I liked to poke around old, broken-down buildings with sticks,
searching for treasure—or just anything really. Once I found a Meccano Set that I played with for years.
I think it was Harry one day who found
an old jacket. He dug around in the pockets and pulled out three
five-pound notes and a ten-bob note. We couldn’t believe it We were so happy
we jumped up and down.
We got a fiver each and with the ten-bob note, we treated ourselves to a big
meal, and then we bought three tins of Creamola Foam. We mixed it with water
and spent the day sucking the tasty fizz!
