Today, Thursday 26th May 2022, was another Beamish Museum day, this time with the mother of the kind caring friend joining the reminiscences. At nearly 90 you can imagine her viewpoint dear readers of Wear and Dao. Anyhow the whole day was a delight from start to finish.
Sunshine and brief light showers were the weather experienced and the places from the 1930s explored. Whilst your old blogger and friend were expecting stories from real life experiences of the elder she was quick to remind us that at 89 she was too young to remember shopping excursions
to a 1930s Co-operative Store and that a tin bath as displayed was not used in her mother's new council house which came complete with a new modern bathroom which included running water.
Those were the days eh dear readers, and we seem to have appreciated the things hand sewn, knitted and crocheted, not mention woven. ..
The food was fantastic as always ... soup and bread for Mam, and spinach quiche with veg and gravy, followed by ice cream then a ride on the fun fair. ..
Tomorrow is another day dear readers of Wear and Dao, anyhow with luck we'll wake up to a sunny day after a peaceful night of reminiscing!
