Resurfaced memory from 5 decades ago
Watching a program.
A parent - policewoman - comes home late and her son takes her dinner, (evening meal), with alfoil covering it, out of the oven and places it on the table.
The memory is, every day my grandmother would cook for the family, we children sat at the table and ate our dinner and my grandmother would place my father's dinner, with alfoil cover, into the oven for when he came home.
The oven got turned off when my grandmother went to bed.
Dad would arrive home when everyone was in bed, throw the meal in the bin.
I rarely saw him eat at home. The only times I saw him eat anything was a pub meal on Saturdays.
Wow, 5 decades ago that memory surfaced as soon as the meal came out of the oven with the alfoil covering.
