[QUOTE="BigWave, post: 547147, member: 6786"] My maternal Grandfather owned a large flour mill in Kensington (J.A.S. Minifie). During the depression, hundreds of swaggies would jump ride the grain trains, and they were each given a small bag of flour at the mill. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/6786/1585850349_jas_minifie.jpg[/img] Grandpa (R.P. Minifie) was the youngest Australian ACE during WWI (flying Sopwith planes with the Royal Airforce UK), and was accredited with 21 "kills" Later, his mill also developed the O-So-Lite cake mix brand, so mum would get a cake mix twice a week. We grew up (thanks mum) on brains, kidney, liver and tripe. [/QUOTE]
