Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Their place only had one bedroom so we all slept in the unfinished attic. Two double beds so soft you rolled to the middle as the springs were completely shot.
My dad's parents' place was similar. I remember being up in the attic with the off-season clothes and extra blankets. No Army blankets (we were a Navy family), but plenty of quilts. I wonder what happened to them? Gone the way of all textiles, I guess.
Those are some nice memories. Thank you for sharing them.

Army (and Navy) surplus was a huge thing in the 40s and 50s. After WWII it was so cheap and the government sold off the excess.
Wow, what a great reminiscence! Really evocative.
Just found out that our corporate Safety Guy is leaving, the "good bye" email he sent to select people said continuing to work for our company conflicted with his ethics and morals! I'm so curious what is going on! Sounds not good for anybody.

Safety-related ethics and morals? That's a little worrisome.
Re: UK political drama. If you believe the Mirror, this is why Boris Johnson wants to stay in office until fall: [link]
Right?
The Boris thing would certainly be on brand!
I could not love Hugh Grant more than I do at this exact moment in time. [link]
What a lovely set of memories from your sister!
Oh, man, that's funny! (Hugh's mechanations)
Hmmm, -t, Safety Guy bailing is totally suspicious.
Well played, Mr Grant! And activists. That's hilarious and apt
