Ration coupons that you had to give the shopkeeper for a small bar of chocy or a small bag of sweets to share with the whole family.

Re: ahhhh!! remember those???
Too right, our first house had an outside toilet and Izal toilet paper. We had no bathroom so bathnight was on Sundays in a tin bath in front of the fire where me and my brother had to share the water.
Chopping firewood and filling the coal scuttle on a winter's morning, then lighting the fire. Took ages to get warm.
Washing day was Monday and I can still smell the damp clothes as they came out of the copper and mum threaded them through the mangle. We always had a steamed meat suet pudding on Monday cos mum used to cook it in the copper with the clothes.
