I did my nurse's training at a hospital in Liverpool, England.
My fellow students and I had little money for meals, so we ate the awful food provided at the hospital complex.
We often took our breaks in the kitchen, and sometimes kindly visitors would give us some of the treats they had brought for patients.
One night a woman brought a pork pie to the kitchen and said to me, "Would you eat this up, love?"
Delighted at the offer, another student and I devoured every crumb.
Soon our benefactor returned, however, and asked, "Is me 'usband's pie 'ot yet, dearie?" |
