Food in the fifties

[Ramrod]

We had a sack barrow made in the war lasted well into the late 70's but spent most of its life in the mill barn. one day I wanted to move something across the yard on a very wet day, dad came across me and said it was a very bad move and so it was, the wheels were made of papier mâché a wartime economy which lasted 30+ years until that day

Weren't made for wheeling stuff about, wheels were for moving from place to place.

And a wet weather job was darning the holes in the sacks!

I remember sticking patches over the holes with a glue called Copydex
