It
was really nice to have a lazy day, and
it’s been ages I since The Man and I have been able to do that. We got up so late that breakfast became
lunch. And what a lunch. The Man did what he does incredibly well and magiced
us up scrummy bacon and eggs, Nom nom
nom
I spent a bit of time
writing, not getting terribly far with my story, but making slow progress.
Florrie, grandma, in 1911
was as I wrote yesterday working in a jam factory . I do like to get my facts right so I asked a
couple of questions of a Fb buddy and then followed up on the answers,
Said buddy pointed me in
the direction of another blog, and pent a while reading the posts.
Things like wasp problems
hadn’t occurred to me, so a little more
grist for writing mill
I also acted their suggestion and sent enquiry emails to both Cross and
Blackwell and Unilever who bought what was Morton’s factory. I’ll keep you
posted on that one.
I couldn’t find granny’s street on a modern map but again with the help
of a FB friend was able to locate it on an old one. Interestingly, it is pretty
near where my other granny lived in Denmark Street, which was only a couple of
miles away.
Tomorrow The Man and I are
off on holiday tomorrow. I will do my best to blog daily.
So if I don’t get to say
it on the day
Merry Christmas to you
and may the new year be everything you wish it to be.
