    Sago was an alternative to rice pudding, it looked like frogs spawn and it was disgusting, schools used it alot.

      @@kdlofty tapioca and sago are very similar although they come from different plants, they both have clear pearls and they are both disgusting, stick to rice pudding.

    Wonderful video! My "Mam" lived in St. Helen's during the war. I'm 59 now but heard the stories and recall her speaking of the foods in your video.
    She came to the States in '46, was always homesick and always missed her parents (never saw them again when she left at 21 years of age).
    When she passed in '14, I took her back to St. Helen's and laid her to rest with her parents. Jan.17th, would've been her 100th birthday. I had flowers placed on her grave. I live in Virginia Beach, Virginia.
    Thought I'd remind you, Emma is stunningly beautiful!
    Happy New Year! Be well!
    Thanks for sharing!

    We went there around 3 years ago, amazing places. Sago is similar to Semolina, a poor man's rice pudding used to have it with raspberry jam back in school back in 60's

    Wow, you wonder what else is hiding away out there probably in plain sight behind a door somewhere.
    Old telephones ☎️ - good old loop disconnect dialling- we were very poor and had a dial phone long after the DTMF ones came out (they were for the posh people) fascinating and some of the engineering is more interesting than some of the modern stuff the effort which went in and the detail.
    Fascinating video 🙌
    All the very best, David 👍

    So unexpected to see you both in reverential mode, appreciating the scale of WW2 efforts to survive. Great vid ! Sago is a starch product from Southeast Asia used to make milk puddings similar to tapioca and rice puddings, all of which i love especially with a large dob of strawberry jam, 😋

    well thats a lot different from you both, Neil. I'm glad you showed this venue because myself and a friend have discussed doing a "tourist day" of the Puule and having this as one of the visits. Incidentally, another must see in Liverpool -so I'm told- are the Williamson caves. They were even used in Tennent's stint on Dr Who as location filming. Gotta say, along with the fab Doug rebuild, I'm really enjoying you branching out into other directions. They are really , and I mean really, making the channel even better. Much respect to you both as always- Kenny

Hopefully it will be different this year. Another on my list is my first "ferry across the Mersey" It might sound daft as aManchester lad but I really do love Liverpool. all the best- Kenny.

    Hi guys i worked in a house in bootle by the strand shopping centre and the basement was still all set up like it was in world war two with a big table with all little ships on a map and a big board up on a stage where they used to plan attacks from there where also small rooms to sleep in the owner said Churchhill stayed there but im not sure it also had that smell of the war

    I heard of this Bunker in Liverpool it was Bombed heavily by the Nazis as they new it was the part of GCHQ in planning D Day. It only survived because it was so deep & under reinforced concrete. Liverpool played a massive part in ww2.

      @UrbanVanlife  Рік тому

      Exactly what you said mate . They shipped a lot of people up to liverpool to work in the bunker and it was the only one to have a direct line to Churchill him self . Some of the stuff you learn down there is mental
