It’s something to contemplate as I put on the Marigolds to wash up the breakfast things… We recommend to use our New Coat High Temperature Paint so long as it can be heat cured as per instructions. My wife usually skips through Part 2, as she has no illusions about pre-war laundry work. There were no washing machines with their pre-set programmes in those days, only indmidating boilers, strong soda and washing powders, guaranteed to roughen the most delicate hands. The soiled clothing had to be rubbed with soap and soaked overnight in cold, salty water.

I tease her about what makes the best cleaning agent for silver in Part 3. According to Kate Kennedy, it was Precipitated Whiting. I can visualise her mother suspending a small piece of Whiting in muslin in a large jug of cold water overnight, pouring off the clear water in the morning and then drying the milky substance left in a slow oven. Apparently the end product is an excellent cleaning agent for the best silver. Both employees and self-employed workers will pay less in National Insurance from next year, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has announced in today's Autumn Statement.
