Congealed fat and pig's blood! Not sure my arteries could take it. Might as well fry it in beef dripping and finish me off for good...!

Martins Bank was Liverpool based. Taken over by Barclays. In Birkenhead, it was in the Gothic building on Charing Cross; the father of my best friend at school was the manager.
