Loved them and hated them, depending on what it was. My mum couldn't and wouldn't cook, but produced some fantastic m and s ready meals for us! I loved toad in the hole at school, as well as cheesy baked potatoes, lasagne, sausage rolls (the offender that led me away from vegetarianism) and hotpot. Donuts were always fresh and so were the eccles cakes.
Sometimes my meals were free, and the other times, I was given much, much more than needed - £1.10, which I spent on a pack of 10 cigarettes and a sausage roll (don't tell my mum!)
