Paul Gillingham @sidrovia.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It was probably the availability of turnips. Farmers in Yorkshire grew turnips (big ones). We would walk to the nearest turnip field pinch a nice round one and carve away in the kitchen. Pumpkins just weren’t a thing in the 1960s. Neither was Tesco’s. 000 0
