Lovely memories, thanks for posting.
The twin tub reminds me of my late mom. She was using hers until the late 1980's possibly early 1990's! I eventually persuaded her to get an automatic washing machine, but she would not leave the kitchen whilst it was running "in case it went wrong". Bless her.
Carol, I remember the team colours at school, I was most upset when I was put in the green team, of the 4 colours green was my least favourite.
I remember my nan collecting foil for the guide dogs, as a very young child I was confused about what the dogs actually did with the foil
