hi laddie - the rolls you mention are rowies
and in my day took the place of breakfast, six
of them capable of sustaining any apprentice
through the livelong day - it could be arranged
to have them delivered warm and fresh to your
door 6 days out of 7 - the calibre of every
bakery and every trawler cook was judged by the
quality of their rowies - it took a fine palate
to discriminate between one fried lump and another
- a dusty bap was something else - oh well, donuts,
muffins and a Horton's coffee is my diet now and
ochone, ochone - see how frail I get - nice to see
that Aiberdeen is still on the cultural map - jeez
- Langsandy
