Further to the recent threads about items we had/used years ago, a small catalogue, with items obviously aimed at the more mature consumers, fell out of yesterday's newspapers. Among the delectable things for sale were a portable manual typewriter (why?) and, wait for it, candlewick bedspreads! Who would want one of them? Apart from being highly allergic to them l have always thought them hideous and smacking of utility. I have enjoyed my duvet for decades although l do remember them being called continental quilts when they first appeared.
Bought the wrong Hot Cross Buns 😩
