It’s all contained in her mother’s old recipe book entitled The Science of Homemaking by Kate Kennedy, who was a lecturer and demonstrator in domestic subjects at Glasgow Provincial Training College. The book is divided into three parts -Cookery, Laundry Work and Housewifery, and was designed to meet the needs of teachers and pupils in all post-primary departments of Scottish and English day schools.

NatWest, Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) and Ulster Bank, which are all part of the NatWest Group, will now shut at least 172 of their bank branches in 2023 and 2024. Any corrosion on the cast can easily be cleared with fine wire wool. you could use this to clear any grease residue too, with the cleaner you are using. If so, it is known as fully polished, so you would need to spray it first and then use zebo/hotspot cast iron polish on it to give a good finish.My wife usually skips through Part 2, as she has no illusions about pre-war laundry work. There were no washing machines with their pre-set programmes in those days, only indmidating boilers, strong soda and washing powders, guaranteed to roughen the most delicate hands. The soiled clothing had to be rubbed with soap and soaked overnight in cold, salty water.
