My memory of Sheaf baths is very hazy at best. Chapeltown baths was where we used to go for school lessons and then they built Hillsborough which was closer than the city centre.

I have a vague memory of doing a sponsored swim at glossop road baths late 70’s I think.

Did you not call into the sweet shop across the road from the Parsonage Derby Tup and get some Yorkshire Mixture?

Interesting point NE. Betty's have a trade mark or similar nonesense on "Fat Rascal". My rascal wasn't from Betty's but I'll call the thing what I please. Today's was from the bakers in Haworth. I found out recently in the Deli in Addingham about the Betty's situation. Today's wasn't great; the ones from Addingham are great, as is their cherry shortbread

Well, I don't actually care what you call it but by implication (I suppose) if you say "Fat Rascal" that leads the average Yorkshire inhabitant to deduce it came from Betty's.
