Ramblings of a nonagenerian (vintage 1923). Grew up in Lambeth in the 20s and 30s. Lived and worked in London during World War II. I have been attempting to do the Telegraph Cryptic Crossword since 1939! (My daughter says I *have* to write this, but I am troubled as it sounds so conceited.) I bought my first computer aged 85 and am continually frustrated by the vagaries of the technological age.

Black Wednesday
I woke this morning to find my fridge freezer was not working. Oh calamity! All my frozen food was awash. It all had to be thrown away. To one of the wartime generation this was a disaster. To waste food was the eighth deadly sin. However as I had inherited this fridge from my daughter and it was nearly 20 years old I suppose I shouldn't grumble. Look on the bright side. I shall now have a new fridge freezer that does not need that wearisome chore of defrosting.
