Would you like to spend one day with typical Londoners of the 19th century? You'll wake up using the services of knocker-uppers. These guys wandered the streets early in the morning and causally tapped on the window panes. For breakfast, you'd have bread, or sometimes porridge, depending on the area in England, and a barley drink which was believed to be packed with vitamins essential for another hard day. Next stop - work, but what would you wear?
