Pangs, Over & Easy and Homework.
Is it the homework or the pangs of growing up hungry that prompts me to write this.
I did home work fast and good but my hunger was a daily nag. What next - trade home work for food. I was lucky, I sat next to Ramesh Kumar, who hated Over & easy eggs [the ones that had the yolk raw and runny]. my pangs were too strong to discriminate. The table top was no place to trade with 'sneakers' and hungry eyes around. We resorted to under the table trading. He would pass the runny egg, I would gently nest it my pockets, finish my meal, leae the dining hall and find a quiet place to get the over & easy and gulp it down. Man I was hungry. Thanks to the different ways eggs can be made, some take a disliking to some ways and some of us could keep off the pangs.
This went on smoothly from 1966 until I left Stanes for Campion in 1968.
