Margaret Wilson, a 26-year-old from Park Road, Kirkham, is delighted to have had one of her favourite recipes - chicken parmigiana - selected for inclusion in the Food Aid recipe book, edited by Delia Smith Photo: Archive

Darter Geoff Tucker is as Lancashire as hot pot... and the treble tops with the lads in his local pub team. But all that could change when the 32-year-old steps up to the 'oche' in front of millions of TV viewers - wearing the red of Wales. Geoff will be an Englishman playing against England. But the match will be doubly embarrassing - it's in his hometown Preston! Geoff, who lives in Town Hill Walk, Wesham, is eligible for the Welsh team because his mother was born in Wrexham Photo: Archive

Mrs Louisa Peake, 56, is the longest serving worker at the Springfields site of British Nuclear Fuels Ltd.

Then the staple canteen diet included "savoury duck" - a dish which included all the kitchen odds and ends and NEVER any duck. Mrs Peake is pictured here in the canteen at Springfields Photo: Archive
