The last title shows that we were all introduced into Goldings by means of a private car, being met by the head boy and shown around Goldings plus getting two sausages for dinner, but like Leslie Thomas most of us arrived in the back of the stores wagon and only had one sausage for dinner, unless you were on dinning hall or kitchen duties, then you could have three or four.
