Thanks Caz, we didn't actually go with out food but I remember cup of oxo and a buttie for a meal and tatter hash and again tatter hash, broth anything nourishing and filling I suppose. Mines October, is your Dad still with us? Had a rotten couple of weeks, daughters 50th this last week, on Mothers day 41 year old son came and told us he and his partner had split up, I guess I just don't like kids getting old or having probs and not being able to do anything about it. Roll on next week see what a mess can be made of that!

May, my love, you were born the same year as my lovely dad, he is may 1933.


Please never, ever feel bad on a thread of mine for saying how you feel, sending you a very big hug,

My Dads family were relatively ok, they kept pigs and Grandad was a great provider. My Mum however was brought up in utter poverty, large catholic family, went without food, she still has nightmares about it.
