One of my 101 in 1001 tasks was to read various Wartime inspired books (things like Make Do and Mend and Eat for Victory - oh and of cours the Wartime Kitchen and Garden!) and to take them on board and use them! So I have been darning socks and joggers and mended Dr Dragons trouser pockets etc - so yeppers money saving all round there!Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup
