Ahh yes I watched the dramatisation of this on ITV with Victoria Wood and I loved it - watched it when it was repeated too. I never thought of getting the book so this is ANOTHER I'll be getting - thanks for reminding me of it, I bet the book is even better as that is often the case.Something else i found..
Nella Last's War:the second world war diaries of housewife 49.
In September 1939, housewife and mother Nella Last began a regular diary that lasted for thirty years. The account that she left of life during the Second World War is moving, fascinating and unique. While Nella's younger son joined the army, she and the rest of the family tried to adapt to the transformed rhythms of life in Barrow-in-Furness, which suffered terribly from enemy bombing raids. Writing each dar for the 'Mass-Observation' project, Nella's diary entries tell a powerful story about the war years, covering everything from sex to the genuine fear of invasion. This was the period in which Nella reviewed her life and her marriage - which she eventually compared to slavery.
