07/02/2017 - "It put me off Park Drive, cabbage and KP nuts"

Workers' perks of chocolate and cigarettes remind Sean of a childhood smoking expedition involving cigarettes, salted nuts and a borrowed cabbage. Music and requests.

A listener remembers a brother working for Cadburys in Birmingham and coming home with chocolate for all the family. Which prompts stories of factory perks. Did the girls in Gallaghers really get 200 free cigarettes a month? Sean remembers a childhood smoking expedition involving cigarettes, salted nuts and a borrowed cabbage. Did fathers really force children to smoke a whole packet of cigarettes to put them off smoking? Or was that just a story? Music and requests Beatles, Bob & Marcia, Blue Mink , Roger Miller, Leo Sayer, Mamas & Papas and more.
