Listen Later

In this episode we listen in on a conversation between Judith, Doris, Joan and Vi. We hear all about their local shops, going for the messages and making the two ounces of sweet ration last for a week. How the dividend worked at the Cooperative store. How to make the best tablet.  Memories of wearing your sister's hand-me-downs, the excitement of getting a radiogram and the joys of cleaning tripe for cooking. Stories from Leith to Grimsby, from the 1940s to the 1960s.
