Our lunches for such occasions were usually some sort of salami or
cheese sandwiches, carrot or celery sticks, raisins a/o peanuts, carton
of yoghurt (previously frozen, which thawed by lunch time), milk or
orange juice and a bottle of water. Sometimes some sort of biscuit or
piece of fruit or packet of crisps.

My mother had an absolute horror of food poisoning, so ordinary ham or
anything made with mayo was out of the question. We were also under
strict orders not to eat from anyone else's lunch box! But we knew whose
lunch was 'safe' and whose wasn't.
