On my UK visit in 1995 I met Elsie for the first time. She told several stories, but one in particular was about her grandmother Sarah(nee Lewington). Sarah took snuff and he fingers were stained from its use. She used to make 'Spotted Dick', a suet pudding with raisins in it, and Elsie refused to eat it , thinking that Sarah had put snuff in it. Elsie was always terrified of Sarah , and no one seems to know why as she was not cruel to her.

Elsie lives at 25 Colston Rd Devizes.
