The days of proper education.I have a 1948 English book that takes you through the first two years of secondary school education of the subject.A young relative when studying to teach showed it to her tutor who was amazed at such a standard of education.

I love the word mangle,also the Derek and Clive telling of Auntie Mabel's experience with a mangle.I saw a wartime video of a couple moving from an old house to a new prefab.The couple when moving stood on the tailgate of the removal van holding on to the mangle.Great things to play with when a kid.

I suppose back in the day a mangle would have been given as a wedding present,unwrapped of course.
