I had 3½ years of the 60s
Don't remember 'scrambles' though - we were too poor to have dinner-money, 90% of my school were on free schoolmeals.

Yay for wise and aged b3tans such as ourselves!
EDIT: Wondering if Scrambles was perchance a Midlands thing - quite prepared to be proven wrong!

well we didn't have scrambles as such
at my secondary school we had a thing called box out which was basically a mugging where things were snatched from you without warning

All my childhood was in Bradford
I don't think it was a geographical thing, the barbarity of children in universal
