Mum's memories of the Second World War could fill a very large book.
I've been thinking a lot about her recently - how brave she was during wartime and how much she meant to me.

The photographs in the gallery are details of a tray I made in papier mâché from a wartime newspaper I found under lino in a house we were renovating. One issue alone of this Berkshire County paper told dozens of stories, in the news section, in advertisements and in reports of marriages, with the groom always in uniform.
