Re: CHIFFCHAFF
Well it wasn't a punishment Wiley she just used what was available having had to bring up the family after the Dad was killed in the war and the mother was depressed I expect I remember her telling me the war widows pittance did not come through for six weeks and her mother couldn't cope.
