Thread Name: Should We Buy War Bonds?
Subject: RE: Should We Buy War Bonds?
Well - If it means cutting down my mothers Iron Fence, which survived the scrap drive of WWII, rather than scraping ang painting it - a two day job, YES !!!
Interestingly Rationing 1939 to 1948 (?) seeme to build a healthier Brittain.
Sweets (Candys) came of the ration in 1952 or 3 - Some years ago we found my old sweet ration coopens in an old suitcase - Now donated to the Pontypridd Town Museam.
What a pity that these days with sweets and chocolate off the ration the Doctor forbids them to this Diabetic.
