Brilliant story. It reminds me how little I know of my parent's youth. Must ask them about it more often while they are still here (both 92 now - very lucky to still have them around).
We never do! I didn't, now my children and grandchildren tend not to unless I broach the subject. A good idea is to sit down with them with any old photos they have. That prompts memories. You might need a rainy day and a teapot
I keep intending to write a sort of autobiography, but my writing skills aren't wonderful and there are other things to do.
