How long ago?
Probably about 30 years ago when they built the new Churchill Precinct. Hall Street isn't there anymore.

Bread and butter pudding - yuck (sorry), I can't say how much I dislike bread and butter pudding - it's to do with the custard soaking into the bread, same goes for summer pudding (fruits okay, but not the bread!) and trifle.
I did once try bread pudding (stale bread soaked in milk, them squeezed; spices and dried fruit added - then baked in the oven like a cake - I think), that was somehow okay. Only had it once though!

Bread and Butter pudding is the second most revolting food next to sprouts.
I used to hate Rice Pudding as well.
I do like Spotted Dick though.
And Sticky Date pudding.

Sprouts is another hate of mine , think it's the only veg I dislike, and like Mike love banana's & custard if the custard is hot not cold.
