You got me thinking now Pat, could have been cracklin I suppose, it was fifty years ago. We definitely got it for nothing whatever it was called. I can't believe they are charging for what would otherwise be thrown away. Much as I used to love them, I wouldn't pay for them. Vivienne |

Where I was brought up in Chadderton near Oldham they used to call them scrapings! and we used to get them free from the chippy if we took in a pile of newspapers for them to wrap the chips up in. Marie |

Vivienne, Did you not call it cracklin' in West London? that's what we called in in Norf London & Sarf London too ;-) I used to get some crackin' for nothing when I bought a bag of chips :-))) Where i live now the best chipper and the oldest (Est 1903) they call it crispy bits and they charge half the price of a bag of chips for them :-( Pat x |
