This incredible series of short stories, many autobiographical, will give delight to young and old alike. Young people will be fascinated by her tales from a world long gone; a world of war and poverty but a world from which people, like the author Hilda Alberg, still arrived in adulthood unscathed and with the determination to create something special from their lives. To older readers the accounts of air raids and evacuation and love and marriage in the old-fashioned way, will strike many a resonant chord.

We are indeed fortunate to have an author of the calibre of Hilda Alberg to chronicle these events and to still be very much aware of the strengths and weaknesses of 21^st century life.

Hilda is a romantic at heart but a romantic who was capable of founding and running her own business. She is also possessed of powers granted to few of us as a healer and physic. For all this she fulfilled the roles of devoted wife to her beloved and sadly missed Frank, mother to her children and of course now an adored grandmother. She is also a broadcaster and community worker of note.’
