Whit Walks Scallops Barm Cakes

A Memory of Ardwick.

Seems a lifetime away. I remember being in the Girl Guides 'marching' around the diocese in between 2 bands, then ending up back at St Thomas' Church Ardwick Green.

Scallops that were really just large flat chips, bought on late winter nights walking home from the bus stop, feeling quite safe to be out late!

Corner shops that made delicious barm cakes while we waited, and stayed open Sundays to sell the strangest - now extinct - products like Indian Brandee!

Playground games - the wind, the wind blows high... and American skipping ...........

Bands at The Apollo.

Great times.
