Falling - and staying - in Love


Everyone loves a love story, and here's a lovely one! Betty describes a night where friend Jack  returns home to bathurst after being away. Though they've been friends for some time, she suddenly sees Jack  - her fiancee to be -  in a whole new light... 

Unspoken Stories


A common theme was the reticence of veterans to talk much about war and what they have seen - even to wives, family and loved ones. Below Peg tells a familiar story about the ways her father and her husband managed the impact of the Great War and of WWII respectively on their  lives. A theme also repeated in many other recordings. [ See also posts for Marge and Betty. ]
