                Well, they could not wish for anything nicer. They are lucky, but I know what you mean.

                Not many fireplaces like it now. The chimney needed sweeping so half a pint of paraffin was thrown up it. Smoke drifted from the chimney as it burned . No one took any notice chimneys were always setting fire.

                    That sounds delicious.
                
                Gramma's are the best. A meat and potato-filled pastie would go quite well with some hot tea.

                I can almost see that black kettle hanging over the fire. Such a cozy and warm vision.

                Grandparents do love their grandchildren and offer them treats every chance they get.  My grandsons say my superpower is cooking.  I wanted it to be something cool but they said no I have the best superpower of all time.  I disagree but what can I say?

                There was not much meat in ours but they came straight from the oven and luxuries were on the short side.

                    This is a delightful episode. Grandmas may sound rough at times, but 
                
                they love their grandsons exactly as they are, - what's the saying?  Oh, yes: warts and all. And the grandson has a memory for all time.

                Oh a Cornish Pastie. Oh I haven't had one for so long. Many Cornish miners went to the tin mines in South Australia, taking their Pasties with them. One can buy a wonderful tasty Pastie with lots of meat in South Australia, even to today.
