These charming tales from 1960s London provide a unique insight into the everyday life of working class families at a time when much of the country was obsessed with pop culture and the new social freedoms that came hand in hand with the advent of the contraceptive pill. The stories, which are based on real events which happened during Julie Norton's childhood, were written by her mother, Mira Harmer, between 1965 and 1970, and appeared in the Daily Worker/Morning Star, where she worked as a feature writer.
