Re: Old way and new way to cook
Another nostolgic photo Norman, thank you. When we lived on Marshall Wallis Rd., SS. The one on the left was the heart and soul of our two bedroom flat. We used it for heat, cooking including bread making, drying our wet clothes round it on a wooden clothes horse, sitting in front of it listening to fairy stories,filling the hot water bottles at bed time. Wetting it down before retiri g with wet cinders or ashes to keep it going all night. Black Leding it once a week to a gleaming shinny black. Probably the only thing, except for the family,of any value in the flat.
