Storm in a teacup: memoirs of a tea lady. Chapter 4.




Chapter 4.

Despite my mother being a self-proclaimed loner, she managed to get around, and was an active member of the C.W.A., the volunteer fire and ambulance brigade, the hospital and football committees, and in her spare time she knitted beanies and tea cosies for charity. ‘Child,’ she would announce, her knitting needles clicking tunefully. ‘A cosy will allow you to keep the tea hot while serving it in style.’
