Re: Attention of all 'Twiddlers' 1944: General Order of Daily Housekeeping

You most certainly do Mayday,my little book tells me that the clever housewife will not let a small child turn her house into chaos,but it takes time to learn and establish a pattern.

It also quite clearly states that a 'good wife and mother recognises the needs of her family,before her house,and a clever and considerate husband also recognises the needs of his wife at such busy times as Christmas,and will do his utmost to entertain the children and or houseguests whilst the 'Special Dinner of the day'is prepared cooked and served. He will then take it upon himself to do most of the heavy washing up,whilst his wife then spends time with the children so that their meal is digested. After this,it is considered,that a healthy walk be the order of the day,weather permitting.
On return the children are given a light tea,time to play with their new toys,before a bath and then to bed to redress the balance of their exciting day.!!

Don't you just love the way with was written. Oh for the good old days.
