hoosh

From downstairs we heard a hoosh as the boiler started. The pipes clanked a little while Frankie B talked more about his trip.

Christmas Day was spent at this camp, and, as was the case with the other sledging expeditions that were out at the time, a special feast was provided. For breakfast they had hoosh, sardines in tomato sauce and raisins; for lunch Garibaldi biscuits and jelly; and for dinner potted boneless chicken and a small plum pudding.
