Hear-hear, Jack Looking back myself as a "war baby" who
grew up in the real austerity of food rationing and an
absence of the all-embracing safety net of social support,
I recall my mother going out to work late in life during her
second marriage after bearing 7 children to a prematurely
dead husband (my own father) and being happy to
continue until made redundant through age. I have no
memory of talk of hardship...everyone seemed to be in
the same situation in our neck of the woods and life
was lived without either great expectations or over insistent complaint. We really did just get on with it!
PERHAPS THE FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE WAS THAT
THEN WE LOOKED OUTWARDS WHEREAS TODAY THE OPPOSITE SEEMS TO BE THE CASE.
