Hated fish pie. It was always stinky and strong flavoured.
If that was on the menu I starved...well sometimes just had a plate of carrot and the pud.
Don't know what it was about the menu, but it was never a goodudding(like jam sponge and custard or roll poly) when fish pie was on the menu...it was usually sago or jelly and custard.
Not something substantial that would stop your back and your belly from flopping together.

Never Jim, I cannot stomach fish other than in batter.....and I hate 'fishy' fish.....it has to be meaty fish.
Salmon makes me violently ill.....no give my portion to the cat.

Re: School Dinners

Some memories of mine were scarey dinner ladies.who took more home than they give the kids...A dollop of mash served with an ice cream scoop..Never any chips...Frog spawn sago...The poor kids on free dinners had to wear a big badge......

Re: School Dinners

school fish pie, mushy peas that were as hard as the marbles you played with and mashed poatoes that always contained lumps that tasted underdone. the only plus side were the sweets. jam rolly poly. spotted dick and the school custard. school dinners must have been the first part of the national corriculum as they sounded as bad in accy as they were in the north east.
