[Britain's Lost & Living Pubs @Britains___Pubs]

In the past, #British pubs were visited by "seafood men" ("cockle men") who'd sell cockles, prawns, mussels and other such items to pub-goers from a wicker basket or on foot. Like many parts of pub culture, they're a very rare sight. It's rare to even see a seafood stall at a pub nowadays, never mind an actual cockle man. This is Dave Bartram the cockle man serving his goods in 2016, thought I've no idea how many are left today.

It's Thursday! Let's celebrate with cake... from our Country Style Fruit cake in the 1960s to our incredible brand new range, finding the right treat at M&S has always been a piece of cake.

Ok, it’s time to ‘fess up. Who ate a Fry’s Crunchie bar in the UL and hid the wrapper behind some books?

Mark in our facilities team got a surprise when he unearthed this chocolate relic recently. Who can help us date it?

Anyone else when they go abroad have an urge to visit the local supermarket to see what local people eat and drink?

A lovely find from yesterday. An Irish designed(?) and printed poker game from the 1950s for the Smithwick's brewery with brand tokens and illustrated cards. I never knew such a thing existed - more to come on this during the week ...

#TBT: Juanita Roberts, #LBJ’s chief personal secretary, once called Zephyr Wright, the Johnson family’s personal chef, to talk beans. Pork & beans, pinto beans, lima beans, green beans… who knew that LBJ would have so many bean opinions?! 🫘🫛
