The Victorians had some weird taste in Christmas cards, putting that aside
Not ‘ A Happy Christmas’ in sight.
Plus get a load of this 1950s Christmas card.
What NO ‘Happy Christmas’ ?
In the 1980s no ‘Christmas’ on the selection box.
Nothing unusual.
No faux outrage then.

I did an O level in photography. We learnt about how photography’s could be manipulated for propaganda . Even in the American Civil War Staged scenes: Photographers would arrange bodies etc
Of course it was much more difficult to make & distribute.
Here is a modern example

🤔 I think the old racist skinheads from the late 70s early 80s who use to bruise up for a fight, just got Zimmer frames & unfurled their flags again .
Rock against racism happened for a reason

Little Arriety had to be put to sleep on Friday. Unfortunately cancer got her and her siblings . She was such a sweetie, but it was very aggressive cancer.

I was looking at thermos flasks - like you do. They’ve brought out some retro ones which evoked childhood memories of picnics, grandparent, slightly off milk,weird smelling over brewed coffee & rain www.pearlandbear.com/cdn/shop/fil...

Some of the most precious things to me are shopping lists, recipes and little nothings written in note books on the back of envelopes scraps of paper, in my parents handwriting. Even in death you stay connected .

Lower paid does not = lower skilled. Historically care has been traditionally a female occupation and women have always had their work devalued. Care is a skilled occupation under valued & underpaid

Arrietty blk rat had to have a hysterectomy to save her, recently lost her two siblings to cancer, meets a new friend (as yet unnamed) Arrietty is nearly 18mth old & so tiny she looks the same size as the baby blonde rat she’s introduced to. So the cycle of rat keeping continues.
