    ...and I used to work for Spillers (Homepride).

    Did you know that in the old days the company's sales force used to have to wear Bowler hats, and that that is where the idea for the flour graders' uniform came from, not the flour mill workers ?

    Well i heard that on the Noel Edmunds radio breakfast show in the seventies but could only remember it was a long drawn out story followed by the punchline. So having nothing better to do i just spent the last hour or so , reinventing the story. Glad you liked it!
