I used to be given this when I was a kid but can't really say I liked it. Sometimes it would be served with custard or even ice cream but I can't get away from the fact that it was there just to take up space on the plate. It wasn't that I couldn't eat it, it's just that it seemed a pointless exercise. It wasn't what you would call satisfying.


I know this is a silly thread but I do wonder how anyone could have a taste for it? If so please explain what I missed.I've never bought jelly in my life and I've been around a while.

When I was little I was told never to pick at scabs but back to the thread...


I have always been partial to the jelly you get when you boil a pig's head for a long, long time.

A Tipper lorry used to park over night in Lordship Lane, it contained all the bones and offal from the slaughter houses, it was to be melted down and made into jelly for a nearby factory, in the morning when the lorry had left leaving the outline of it in moving maggots.

No Mum thanks, can I have Ice cream?

    • The empty shelves is well reported, but the sewage smell has been awful for weeks if not months, and just keeps getting worse. It started off near the Costa machine/ behind the delivery and collections booth thing, but now it hits you the second you walk in the store. I’m amazed nothing (visibly at least) appears to be going on to fix it. Somewhat relieved it’s not just me who can smell it!
    • Andy Burke has done 2 plumbing jobs for us in the last few weeks and we highly recommend him. His number is 7983 688 451.
    • I presume the terrapins originally came to the park as unwanted pets. It seems to be fairly common for people to dump them in park ponds etc when they realise they don't stay the small size they were when they bought them.
    • Same reason that M&S's shelves were half empty recently. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/apr/30/co-op-forced-to-shut-down-part-of-it-system-after-hack-attempt?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
