RED CROSS PARCELS





Prisoners of war in WW2 must have looked forward to their Red Cross Parcels with longing and excited expectation. In our recently imposed austerity I know how they must have felt. Today The Old Girl's 'red cross parcel' arrived from Scotland. With Christmas cards and presents it also contained Caramac bars, Gold Bars, Thornton toffee and Thornton chocolate truffles. Luxury.

My goodness,
I didn't know they still made Caramac.

Any Tunnocks Caramel Wafers?
or
Potato Scones?
