Thats what the man used to shout on a sunday morning from his raised stall in east lane "gets ya circulation goin mrs "

was available by the dimple base glass,ice cold luverlee when on a summers morning having carried bags of veg,kids toys and anything else that had caught your eye through the bussle of that busy place,just as nice as it was served hot on a snowy winters day"warm the cockles of ya heart"............."right down to the toes it goes"......not wrong,but hey that was 40 odd years ago,i was but a mere whippersnapper...moved away come back gone again and back where i started,east street still exists,nothing like it was or will ever be again...buy mine now in asdas,to be found amongst the carribean section..........oh and in the pie mash shop at sutton if asda sold out but beware you pay the privellege of an extra 99p!and asda is opposite ! ( asda 1-09 )yeh yeh times have changed

suppose now a raised stall serving real glass breaks sum euro rules let alone a loud cockney voice declaring "get it in ya mrs and feel what it does to ya insides" alongside such blinders as "used by the men of the carribean..........and look how many kids they got "..............oh yes time moves on,but thankfully the original sarsp still remains and is a pleasure all year round,especially the memories that come with it.
