I make shepherds pie.

Omg I remember the old wollies cafeteria at town hall. Also those large glass drink things that had juice in one and chocolate milk in the other.
They still have the cafeteria upstairs only 1/4 of the size but I think they have kept original seats
Well after all these years. Have not been there since I was a kid

A few more variations: boil a white onion with the spuds and mash with the spuds, use mayo instead of milk (coleslaw mayo is best), use Italian herbs and for a spicy mash add Keens curry powder and finely ground black pepper.
