The opposite to "Brands we have loved and lost"

Just wondered if there are any new brands or items you cherish that you wished we had had when we were busy young mums.

I love those microfibre mops which wring out so well and clean the floor in no time with their nice wide mop heads. I think the alternative was vaccuming and sweeping in the old days. We did have more carpetted floors then, though.

The DC survived, of course, but I feel much happier for the DGC crawling and playing on a freshly wiped floor.

Bejam Franbern that’s a name I haven’t heard for years, our Automatic washer was bought in 1967, but the freezer from Bejam was about four years later if I remember correctly. I hope I am not misremembering this, but I think it came with a special offer. It was an upright model and for an extra £50 it was full of meat, and by that I mean good sized joints, chops etc. I also remember, as soon as we made space Spending hours blanching vegetables. Freezers were hard work in those days!
