Hi, I`ve just been listening to a great programme on radio 4 about life in the workhouses. Must check up to see if it`s going to be repeated, as I missed half of it. What an eye-opener! Jay. |

While looking for that, I have been listening to one about all the children that were shunted off to all parts of the world. Very sad :(( Thanks Judith and Nell xx |
