The Home Front A lot of us here are very interested in WW2 history - how they lived at home during those uncertain times; what they ate;what they wore;how they kept themselves amused; how did they cope? There was a lot of very sage advice back then, and we would do well to follow a lot of it these days - so, why don't we have a go? Ofcourse we are not under the enormous pressures and dangers they were in, but I'm sure we can all benefit from trying out the frugal lessons and make do and mend. Feel free to dip in and out as you choose - you don't have to do it all. Moderator kate |

How to............ In here will go the How to....... articles, formerly Masterclasses. The idea is for someone with knowledge and experience to lead interested others in trying out new things - cooking, crafts, etc. Plenty of room for comments, pictures from everyone. Please keep all the related threads under one heading, though, to make it easier to find in the future. Moderator MrsL |
