I even helped the church secretary mimeograph the church newsletter. Mama and my aunts wrote recipes in brand names! 1/2 Spry (shortening) and stuff like that. <br />Visit me at: <a href="http://lifefaithincaneyhead.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Life & Faith in Caneyhead</a><br />I am Ensign B of <a href="http://authorstephentremp.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tremps' Troops</a><br />with the <a href="http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com/p/a-to-z-challenge-sign-uplist-2015.html" rel="nofollow">A to Z Challenge</a><br />Barbara In Caneyheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06053601327400989802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-50846972948478694472015-04-15T20:50:04.710-05:002015-04-15T20:50:04.710-05:00When I was little we always read two Sunday papers...When I was little we always read two Sunday papers, which meant double the comics for me.

When we took up the carpet in our bedroom we found old newspapers under it and I remember one talking about when they brought in drink driving laws with an official limit in the UK (1967).
