I remember my first sliced bread – it was wonderful.
We had green pea powdered soup.
My Grandmother used to make ginger beer in stone bottles.
Mostly the shops weren’t open on Sundays. If you bought any tinned goods they charged you an extra penny.
There was usually half day closing in the week.
We had a copper boiler for washing the clothes.
We used sunlight soap and a board and mangle.
I remember my Mum drying the clothes in front of the fire and they caught alight!
As a married couple with lived with my Mum and dad and we had a small tv on the sideboard.
We made some of our own clothes.
You had to still save your clothing coupons.
